Andy Warhol.
He was interested in institutional collecting. Andy revolutionized art exhibition practices with Raid The Icebox. The tittle of the show was a pun referring to many museums' cold storage areas, filled with objects that the public could not see.
He created a thoroughly unconventional set of displays. Paintings were placed on the floor, leaning against walls and some are stacked up. While the shoes were exhibited in a large cabinet, free to be touched.
This radical display broke the institutional rules about the display and value of certain objects over others in a museum environment.
Usually in museums, attention was given to all kinds of objects. He have successfully displayed the fashions of culture along with the art.
