The Alton Towers Resort has long been the UK’s number one theme park offering families the ultimate theme park break, but did you know that Alton Towers Resort has branched out into the world of art?
That’s right, Alton Towers Resort are celebrating 80 years of Andy Warhol with the release of eight pictures in the artists cool pop-art style.
“But what has Alton Towers got to do with Warhol?” I hear you ask. Well, the answer is, not that much. But it did give them the chance to make some very interesting (if at times slightly garish) looking pictures, made up entirely of ride images.
The images are the ones that you pay a fiver for when you get off the ride which depict you with either a) a horrified grimace or b) a gleeful smile, depending on how hardcore you are. They have then made a collage from these images and made some really fantastic images of legendary icons throughout the last 80 years.
Britney Spears, Madonna, Jackie O and Liz Taylor are just a handful of stars who have had their faces replaced with ride images and it is claimed that Jonathan Ross, Chris Evans and McFly are actually hidden within the depths of the artwork (magnifying glasses at the ready please folks).
If you have been to Alton Towers Resort lately, there’ s every chance that you too might be lurking within the depths of the images. Drag them to your desktop and zoom in on the images for a better look and who knows, you might be famous too!
