More from Andy Warhol
"When you do the same thing over and over again, it gets to be nothing new. It gets to be like a ritual."
"I'm not a real memory. I'm a commercial memory."
"I am a person who is very superficial. I like surfaces."
"Art is anything you can get away with."
"I'd prefer to remain a mystery. I never give my background, and, anyway, I make it all up different every time I'm asked."
About Andy Warhol (1928-1987)
American Pop Art icon whose Factory industrialized image-making and erased the line between commerce and fine art. Closely associated with Roy Lichtenstein (Pop comic-strip painter) and Robert Rauschenberg (combine-painter precursor). For an intellectual contrast, see Mark Rothko, Abstract Expressionist of the deeply personal color field — Rothko stood for emotional depth and singular authorship — exactly what Warhol's silkscreen production line industrially refused.
