When Andy Warhol Went to Pride and Fire Island

In June of 2013, the famed auction house Christie's sent out these images to promote "Members Only: Eyes on the Guise," an online-only auction of original works by legendary gay pop artist Andy Warhol. The sale, which featured more than 200 photographs, prints, and drawings "that offer insight into Warhol's exclusive and intimate world," ran through Pride month of that year. Among the photos listed are several snapshots Warhol took during the 1984 Gay Pride Parade in New York City as well as several pictures taken on the beach or on Fire Island between 1982 and 1984.
