T.ie new facilities include eight new theaters, the largest with a capacity of 300 persons, and a new viewing and sound system. Divisions Director David Poland said the new dolby system, which includes 14 speakers, should improve sound quality and provide more enjoyable entertainment. A new computer system is being used to allow faster service in the ticket line and at the concession stand. The concession stand's background resembles a Warhol print with a '90's punch, and up-to-date posters have been placed outside each theater to promote the film and help people find the right theater.

The Warhol collection being exhibited at the Columbia Museum of ^ Art proves that Warhol was an artist ahead of his time. He was a voyeur, watching American culture I through a nostalgic glass ? shown in his portraits of Mickey Mouse, Speed Skater, and his silkscreens of John Wayne and Teddy Roosevelt. His silkscreen portrait of Mick Jagger, in 1975, was oddly prophetic of the rip-and-glue Discover a you you never knew. JjL ' Sexier, bolder, more glamorous.

The impressive, untrendy works Geronimo, Plains Indian Shield and Kachina Dolls come from a period when Warhol was captivated by culture of American Indians. The one thing that really struck me during this exhibit was the realization that none of the images that Andy Warhol made famous were created by him. All of his 'art' were reproductions of stills or company logos that he changed a little to what his idea was of what they should be. By doing this he created a pseudo-art that made him famous and his images an icon of the Sixties and Seventies culture. Andy Warhol was the youngest of three sons bom to an immigrant czech coal miner in Pittsburgh and grew up during the Depression. He left home in 1949 seek fame as a commercial artist in Manhatten.
