Empire is a tribute to Andy Warhol’s 1964 silent, black-and-white film of the same name, remade by Nature Theater of Oklahoma, the internationally renowned theater company. Instead of filming the Empire State Building, as Warhol did, Nature Theater is creating an animated version, drawn by hand, one 4 x 6” index card at a time. It will ultimately last more than eight hours—the same length as Warhol’s film. You’re invited to view the project so far, and contribute your own drawings to the animation.
This work was made possible, in part, by the Doris Duke Performing Artist Awards program, and has been partially created in residence at Berliner Festspiele/Foreign Affairs, HAU Hebbel am Ufer, and Mass Live Arts.
