Liège (Belgium), Feb 8 (EFE), (Camera: Leopoldo Rodríguez).- A row of Campbell's soup cans, a wall full of 'Marilyns' that observe the spectator or a sea of ??metallic clouds are some of the proposals that have transformed the Belgian city of Liège into Andy Warhol's “Factory” on the occasion of the Warhol Festival which is being held in the Belgian city. FOOTAGE OF WARHOL EXHIBITION IN LIÉGE, BELGIUM.SOUNDBITES OF FRANÇOIS HENRARD, EXHIBITION'S CURATOR:"There is a clear parallelism between Warhol and the American dream. Warhol is like a symbol of the American dream. He was raised in a very poor family, a family of migrants, who came to the United States. His mum could barely spoke English and, from nothing, he grew and became one of the most important artists of the 20th century."
