More from Andy Warhol
"Being born is like being kidnapped. And then sold into slavery. People are working every minute. The machinery is always going. Even when you sleep."
"My mother was always saying, 'Don't go out without your coat,' and I was always saying, 'But, Mom, I'm going to be famous.'"
"If you want to know all about Andy Warhol, just look at the surface; of my paintings and films and me, and there I am. There's nothing behind it."
"I never wanted to be a painter; I wanted to be a tap dancer."
"Since people are going to be living longer and getting older, they'll just have to learn how to be babies longer."
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.
