The Nasher Museum at Duke University has teamed up with Chapel Hill’s Ackland Art Museum and Greensboro’s Weatherspoon Art Museum to present “Big Shots: Andy Warhol Polaroids.” The exhibit combines each of the institution’s 100 Warhol Polaroid shots with other connected pieces, such as paintings and black and white portraits. On February 18th, the band Dean & Britta will perform "The 13 Most Beautiful," which are songs to accompany 13 of Warhol's four-minute screen tests. Band member Dean Wareham joins guest host Laura Leslie, Director of Duke Performances Aaron Greenwald and Nasher Curator Sarah Stroth to discuss Warhol's enduring relevance.
