Andy Warhol Museum - Cecil

Filmed at the end of august 2006.
Warhol owned a taxidermy Great Dane named Cecil, reportedly named for possible former owner Cecil B. Demille.

The stuffed dog once stood guard at the entrance to Warhol's Factory studio in New York and appeared in the artist's Pop Art portraits. Cecil is now on display at the Andy Warhol Museum.

The Andy Warhol Museum is a vital forum in which diverse audiences of artists, scholars and the general public are galvanized through creative interaction with the art and life of Andy Warhol. The Warhol is ever-changing and constantly re-defining itself in relation to contemporary life, using its unique collections and dynamic, interactive programming as tools.

Located on the North Shore of Pittsburgh, The Warhol is one of the four Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh and is a collaborative project of the Carnegie Institute, Dia Center for the Arts, and The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc. Opened in 1994, the Museum features extensive permanent collections of art and archives on one of the most influential American artists of the twentieth century. It is also a primary resource for anyone seeking insights into contemporary art and popular culture.

Why is it sick?

It's no different then mounting a deer or

should behavor matter? no.
