Andy Warhol “Little Electric Chair” Viewing

For first time in Scottsdale since consigning Rock Star Alice Cooper’s multi-million-dollar Andy Warhol, the public will get a rare opportunity to view the legendary acrylic and silkscreen ink on canvas, Little Electric Chair in-person on Thursday, June 24th at Larsen Gallery from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.Cooper’s Warhol will be on display at Larsen Gallery during the Thursday ArtWalk. Guests attending will also be treated to a reception and one-of-kind performance by Indie/Folk Singer-Songwriter Sophie Dorsten from Cooper’s Solid Rock Foundation.

The artwork, which is expected to fetch between $2.5 and $4.5 million, could become Arizona’s highest selling artwork to date when it’s auctioned off to the highest bidder at the 2021 Fall Larsen Art Auction on October 23, 2021. Cooper chose Larsen Gallery, in Scottsdale to sell his prized Andy Warhol after he famously re-discovered the work stored in his garage. “I was never a Warhol collector,” said Cooper. “When I collect, I like to collect a lot of pieces and I’m not going to get any more Warhols. Somebody is probably looking for this electric chair and I have it.”

The special public display will include the striking painting itself and photos of Alice Cooper and Andy Warhol. Scott and Polly Larsen, owners of the Larsen Gallery will also be at the gallery and able to answer questions, talk about the incredible artwork, and register potential bidders for the October 23rd auction.
