Re-mix, Re-envision...
13 Most Beautiful…Songs for Andy Warhol's Screen Tests features a selection of Warhol's four-minute silent film portraits with newly commissioned soundtracks by Dean Wareham & Britta Phillips, performing as Dean and Britta. The project was jointly commissioned by The Andy Warhol Museum and The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust for the 2008 Pittsburgh International Festival of Firsts and was developed by Ben Harrison, Curator of Performing Arts, with Geralyn Huxley, Curator of Film and Video, and Greg Pierce, Assistant Curator of Film and Video of The Andy Warhol Museum. Taking the form of a multi-media concert, the project began touring in January '09 at Lincoln Center in New York and has since toured throughout the country and internationally to almost fifty venues and continues to except offers into 2012. The project also resulted in the first official release of early Warhol films on DVD, which was produced in collaboration with Plexifilm and launched in April '09.
