Edie 66: Andy Warhol, Jerry Schatzberg, Gerard Malanga, Adam Ritchie brings together film, photography and archival images to revisit one of the most recognizable figures of 1960s New York. On view from May 28 to July 5, 2026, the exhibition centers on Warhol’s Outer and Inner Space, a rare 1966 double-projected film built around Edie Sedgwick and her own image on a television monitor.
The setup remains strikingly simple and oddly modern. Sedgwick appears in conversation with a prerecorded version of herself, split across two screens so that her presence is both immediate and fragmented. The effect turned her into one of the Factory’s defining faces, while also anticipating later work in video and mediated portraiture. Warhol’s Cow wallpaper and alternate screen tests of Sedgwick extend that focus, showing how he returned again and again to repetition, surface and image-making as forms of portraiture.
Jerry Schatzberg’s photographs shift the tone. Drawn from sessions in 1965 and 1966, they show Sedgwick with a more intimate sense of character, balancing glamour with vulnerability and spontaneity. Where Warhol often kept his distance, Schatzberg’s camera lingers on expression and mood. The result is a fuller picture of Sedgwick not just as a Warhol subject, but as a figure whose style and presence helped define the downtown scene around the Factory.
Gerard Malanga’s photobooth images add another layer, capturing Sedgwick in a loose, playful register that reflects the improvisational energy of the circle around Warhol. Adam Ritchie’s photographs of The Velvet Underground, including material from their first Ludlow Street apartment and performances with Sedgwick and Malanga, complete the picture of a tight creative world where music, film and style moved through the same rooms.
Together, the works present Sedgwick less as a myth than as a working presence inside a scene that still shapes how the 1960s are remembered.
