Kennedy photographed Andy Warhol at The Factory and on-location beginning in 1964. Robert Indiana introduced Kennedy to Warhol after showing him photographs Kennedy took of him. Andy was impressed and excited with Kennedy’s work and invited him to The Factory to shoot him and his work.

Kennedy’s rare and historic photographs of Warhol comprise the definitive collection as he shot Warhol in creative vignettes as opposed to the ordinary, stilted shots we so often see of him. Andy eagerly acted out the creative scenes devised by Kennedy.

Kennedy’s Warhol archives were forgotten and placed in storage at his New York City studio where they remained for many years. Kennedy concentrated on his own pursuit and achievement of success in the New York City advertising agency arena. This definitive, historic collection of Warhol photographs were recently brought out of storage. They were exhibited at a Miami Art gallery for the very first time in 2004.

Kennedy has an extensive art background. He attended the Pratt Institute and the School of Visual Arts, etc. Additionally, he traveled worldwide undertaking advertising agency assignments. Throughout these travels, Kennedy photographed for his own fine art portfolio. This collection includes a series of photographs of Venice, poster art, nudes, tar art, beauty, travel, abstractions, and many additional fine art images. The Warhol archives is just a segment of this extensive archive. Kennedy continues to shoot for his fine art collection. This material comprises his fine art legacy.
