Karen Bystedt was born in Israel,but lived in London and California as a child.In 1982,as a photography (攝影) student at New York University,she was photographing male models for a book when she came across an ad featuring Andy Warhol,a very famous artist.She thought it would be really great to put him in her book.
So she called Andy Warhol at his studio in Union Square and asked if she could photograph him.
Two weeks later,Bystedt took a rented Hasselblad camera and lights to Warhol's famed "Factory" on 14th street.She ended up taking 36 pictures,and published two in her book,Not Just Another Pretty Face,published in 1983.Warhol came to its launch(發(fā)行) party-and that was the last time she saw him.
A few years later,she packed the portraits in a box and moved to Los Angeles.But after she'd gotten settled,she couldn't find them.She couldn't remember whether she had given the photos away or just left them in some forgotten storage unit.Either way,she thought they were lost forever.
In 2011,Bystedt became determined to find the missing films(底片).She spent two weeks going through two old garages,where she had put a bunch of belongings decades before.In a cardboard box,she found ten of the original films,covered in dust.She and a friend spent four months digitizing and cleaning the images up,pixel(像素) by pixel.
Bystedt was not content to merely publish the unseen photos.She invited contemporary artists to paint over and around her Warhol pictures,breathing new life into her old work.So she began reaching out to artists,seeing if they would be interested in putting their own stamp on the pictures.
The responses were overwhelming.Bystedt's new exhibit,"The Lost Warhols",opened on May 1,2018 at 178 Sixth Avenue in Soho,New York,included 66 different interpretations of her portraits from 34 artists.
