TIFTON —
Ironically, the death of astronaut Neil Armstrong occurred while several Andy Warhol “Moonwalk” works were on display at the Tifton Museum of Arts and Heritage. Warhol was one of the most important and influential artists of the 20th century and the leading figure in the visual art movement known as Pop Art. Shown is Cochran Collection owner Wes Cochran talking with Donald Dorminey, who worked with Warhol in Manhattan on one special exhibition. The show continues at the Tifton Museum of Arts and Heritage through Sept. 14. Hours are from Sunday, 1-4 p.m.; Tuesday – Thursday, 11 a.m.-7 p.m.; and Friday, 11 a.m.-5 p.m.
