Lecture: We are all Warhol's Children
SETON HALL UNIVERSITY
February 22, 2011
NEW JERSEY--Andy Warhol is the world’s most famous American of Carpatho-Rusyn ancestry. The icons of the Ruthenian Byzantine Catholic Church were his first exposure to art. His unexpected death in 1987 was followed by the fall of communism in Eastern Europe and the rise of the Rusyn movement for identity, which embraced the flamboyant pop-artist, filmmaker and jet setter as their iconic figurehead. Professor Elaine Rusinko of the University of Maryland will lecture on this impact on Thursday, March 24 in Fahy 236 at Seton Hall. [link]
