The retrospective will feature over 100 works spanning across Warhol's decades-long career, including key pieces from his renowned Pop period like Marilyn Diptych, Elvis I And II and Race Riot. Visitors to the London gallery will also be able to experience Warhol's floating Silver Clouds installation, which was initially meant to signal his "retirement" from painting in favor of moviemaking in the late 1960s.

The artist famously stated at the time that "good business is the best art", a statement which prompted curators at Tate Modern to look at how Warhol's foray into publishing and TV can be perceived as an attempt to bring the underground into the mainstream.
