Since September 2008 the Wexner Center in Columbus, Ohio, has presented an Andy Warhol exhibition called "Other Voices, Other Rooms". In addition to showcasing Warhol's art, the exhibition also had an extensive musical component, including presenting Dean & Britta's 13 Most Beautiful... Songs for Andy Warhol's Screen Tests and putting on shows with bands paying tribute to Warhol associates the Velvet Underground (full disclosure: I sat on a panel as part of this series). To close out "Other Voices, Other Rooms" last week, the Wexner Center presented an evening of VU covers by local lo-fi heroes Times New Viking and Psychedelic Horseshit.
