The Warhol Announces The Velvet Underground & Nico: Scepter Studio Sessions

 

The Warhol Announces The Velvet Underground & Nico: Scepter Studio Sessions Opening May 12, 2023 Read the full release and access images in the museum's press room. The Velvet Underground, The Velvet Underground & Nico, 1967, The Andy Warhol Museum, Pittsburgh; Founding Collection, Contribution The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc.   The Andy Warhol Museum announces The Velvet Underground & Nico: Scepter Studio Sessions, on view May 12 – September 25, 2023. The Velvet Underground & Nico: Scepter Studio Sessions highlights the Velvet Underground and the music from their first recording sessions in April 1966 at Scepter Studios in New York City. The exhibition centers on the original tapes of the nine initial tracks recorded by the band, recently identified while processing Andy Warhol’s archive at The Warhol, which became the bedrock of their debut album The Velvet Underground & Nico (1967, Verve Records), one of the most jarring and influential albums in rock music. These monophonic reel-to-reel ¼” tapes feature alternate versions and mixes of songs later issued on the 1967 release which was produced by Warhol, and often referred to as the “banana album”, as it featured a peel-away banana on the cover designed by Warhol. Although an acetate version, which was made from these rare master tapes, was released for the 45th anniversary of the album, it is of a different sonic quality, given the generation loss inherent in an analog copy. The nine tracks from the tapes, which will be on view, will play continuously in the gallery and will be accompanied by a large selection of photographs by Steve Schapiro from 1966-67 of the Velvets, Warhol and associates. In addition to the tapes, on view will be rare, unseen footage of the band performing live, more than 30 Warhol Screen Tests featuring the five members of the band filmed during the peak of their collaboration in 1966, and 100 copies of the “banana album”, all from the collection of Velvet’s enthusiast, Mark Satlof, which highlight the listener’s interaction with Warhol’s art. “This is an exciting opportunity to celebrate the Velvet Underground and the beginning of their relationship with Warhol, as their original manager, producer and cover designer of the iconic 1967 debut album The Velvet Underground & Nico (aka the “banana record”), through an experiential exhibition centered around the dynamic sonic quality of the original Scepter Studio master tapes, as a highlight of the museum’s archive collection,” said Ben Harrison, senior director of performing arts and programming. To complement the exhibition, a schedule of public programs is being organized and will be announced at a later date. The Velvet Underground & Nico: Scepter Studio Sessions is curated by Ben Harrison, senior director of performing arts and programming, in collaboration with Matt Gray, manager of archives and Greg Pierce, director of film and video. A press preview of the exhibition that includes a tour with Ben Harrison, senior director of performing arts and programming will take place on May 11 at 2 p.m. at The Warhol. Reservations are required. Email press@warhol.org. The Velvet Underground & Nico: Scepter Studio Sessions is generously supported by The Fine Foundation.
