Founded in 1994, the International Studio and Curatorial Program (ISCP) in East Williamsburg, Brooklyn provides residencies and exhibition opportunities for international artists, curators, and collectives. The organization introduces New York audiences to timely new perspectives from across the globe, calling special attention to the work of under-represented artists. ISCP presents multiple solo and group exhibitions and works closely with resident artists to produce publications and public programs that serve to advance critical discourse around international contemporary art.

1964
Philip Johnson commissioned Warhol to make a large-scale work for the exterior for his pavilion for the New York World’s Fair, along with other artists. Warhol’s provocative response, a multiple portrait of ‘Most Wanted Men’ was installed a few days before the opening but was deemed too inflammatory and contrary to the upbeat image of the World’s Fair and the work was taken down.
