LITTLE ROCK, AR.- The Arkansas Arts Center presents the exhibition Factories: Warhol, Sex and Disasters / Photographs by Tim Hursley, on view through February 1, 2009, in the Alice Pratt Brown Atrium.

Tim Hursley, an internationally known architectural photographer, documents Andy Warhol’s factory, brothels in Nevada, polygamist colonies and disaster in post-Katrina New Orleans. During his initial foray into Warhol’s world, Hursley became interested in how architectural and interior spaces are metaphors for those who inhabit them. This exhibition tells the story of each “factory,” beyond the structural bones of the rooms and buildings.

A local Arkansan, Hursley has photographed several structures around the world including the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington D.C., the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain, and the Clinton Presidential Center in Little Rock, AR. He has also received awards for his work including an American Institute of Architects Honor Award, an Arkansas Arts Council Fellowship and an Award of Excellence from Communications Art Magazine.
