Andy Warhol Eyes Wide Closed by Paige Powell

Released Jun 22, 2022

Nifty Gateway is pleased to present Day 2 of our NFT photography spotlight, consisting of a group of photographers with unique approaches to portraiture. We are thrilled to showcase the work of the talented artists Paige Powell, Tania Franco Klein, and Ismail Zaidy!

“In late 1984 Andy started to deliberately close his eyes whenever I took Polaroids and 35mm photographs of him. When I first pointed out that I needed to take another photo because his eyes were closed, he said he was doing it on purpose so that I'd be the only one to have images of him with his eyes closed. I never questioned him again when he closed his eyes.”

—Paige Powell
