AN ANDY Warhol portrait of Michael Jackson will be on display at The O2 from Thursday.
The British Music Experience event, an interactive exhibition of pop music, will display the famous 1984 portrait before it returns to New York to go up for auction.
The piece, commissioned to celebrate the world record breaking sales of Jackson's Thriller album, will be added to the exhibition's collection for three days.
The portrait is expected to attract an opening bid of $800,000.
In recent years the average auction figure reached for a comparable Warhol portrait is $17 million.
