n the 60s Andy Warhols continued to make headlines in both the art world and the real world with his flamboyant personality, innovative pop art, and just by being one weird fuckin' dude. In 1968, Warhol formed The Factory, his New York City studio that doubled as a den for some of the most lively, well-attended, and weirdest parties the world has ever seen. Now, forty years later, his vision is being recreated. Tomorrow, Artlife Gallery will present its second Factory Party, a recreation of Warhol's legendary shindigs. The event will feature art, video, sculpture, musicians, and photographers, some of the best that Calgary has to offer. Presumably there will also be some substances not fit for mentioning here. No word yet on the resurrection of Nico.
