This undated photo provided by The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc. shows &quot;Most Wanted Men No. 2, John Victor G., 1964&quot; a silkscreen depicting a mug shots of one of the NYPD’s 13 most-wanted criminals whose likeness was briefly mounted on a facade of the New York State Pavilion at the 1964 New York World’s Fair. The fair celebrated “The World of Tomorrow,” but Warhol may have been ahead of his time. His monumental 20x20 foot piece commissioned specifically for the fair was deemed too edgy for the family-friendly event and painted over just before opening day. Now, 50 years later, the work is the focus of a museum exhibition being staged on the very fairgrounds where the pop-art provocateur was infamously censored.
