Ever wonder where Andy Warhol’s peek-sticker banana came from?
Album art for 1960s art rock band, the Velvet Underground, who were good friends of the artist.

Peek into their lives behind-the-scenes in “The Velvet Underground Experience,” a new pop-up museum in New York City that opened at 718 Broadway. Until December, check out stories about the German blonde bombshell Nico (who was largely defined by the men she dated; Iggy Pop, Bob Dylan and Jim Morrison), and was a muse to Warhol.
Und uncover all the groundbreaking records and songs of the band, which recently celebrated their 50 year anniversary in a tour given by the band’s bassist John Cale.
