LifeEditors Beth Cole & Jeff Wade Email [email protected] Thursday, December 1, 2011 A8 P art 1 of 3 In the first of a three-part series about the transformation of a former food bar into a tech-heavy art gallery, Madison Art State of the Collection launches an exhibit that merges art art and media for a ‘learning space.’

By Beth Cole The Breeze

Modern technology and classical art don’t always go together, but an upcoming exhibit in the newly renovated Skyline Museum in Festival will test that theory. “Mentor to an Icon: A Charles Lisanby and Andy Warhol Exhibit” will highlight the life of Emmy-award-winning production designer Charles Lisanby and his relationship with pop artist Andy Warhol. “I want students to be engaged,” said Kate Stevens, director of the Madison Art Collec- tion. “I want people to be involved. I want people to really like it.” The exhibit will feature interactive media like videos of interviews with Lisanby and an 3-D interactive iPad application that will take visitors through a 3-D representation of the gallery with more information on each piece. Stevens also hopes to stream music similar to what Lisanby listened to in his New York apartment through a sound sys- tem for “a little bit of ambiance.” Stevens traveled to Los Angeles in sum- mer 2010 to talk to Charles Lisanby, 87, about potentially donating his life’s work to the collection. He told her to pack up his entire collection and bring it back with her to JMU. Among more than 30 boxes, Stevens dis- covered original Warhol sketches, signed Griffin Harrington / The Breeze memorabilia and Lisanby’s homemade films. “It was truly a time of engagement and “Mentor to an Icon: A Charles Lisanby and Andy Warhol Exhibit” will open Jan. 23. The newly designed Skyline Museum will hold its grand opening discovery, and it was really exciting,” Stevens in Festival. The gallery will feature an iPad application that will act as a teaching device and take visitors through a 3-D representation of the said. “The more we unpacked, the more we found.” Lisanby met Warhol in the early years of sketches from Andy Warhol, a signed origi- Members of the MAC team made two trips Since then, Stevens and her MAC team Warhol’s career.
