S&H Green Stamps. Philadelphia: Institute for Contemporary Art, 1965. Offset lithograph, 23 1/8 x 22 3/4in (58.7 x 57.8 cm), folded as issued. THE GALLERY INVITATION FOR WARHOL'S LANDMARK 1965 EXHIBITION. Warhol's celebrity, along with his relationship with Edie Sedgwick had reached a fever pitch by the time the show opened in 1965, and the frantic exhibition at ICA marks the birth of the celebrity artist and exhibition as spectacle that are hallmarks of the modern world. By the time Warhol and Sedgwick arrived to a crowded gallery at ICA, the crowd, hyped up on celebrity, liquor and dancing, was in a frenzy. The couple had to be whisked upstairs to escape the mobs, and eventually made their way down a fire escape to safety. Reportedly, Warhol was tickled at the spectacle, marked by a lack of any actual art, which had been removed as a precaution after a painting had been damaged the previous evening.
