You know what Andy Warhol's sole contribution to this country has been? He made Campbell's Soup a household word.
When I went to college, and I went to art school, I started to realize that Warhol was cool and that pop art was fun.
I then discovered the Pop Art of Warhol, Lichtenstein, and Peter Max. I was inspired that these fun and colourful images could be presented seriously on canvas.
Edward Smith: What do you think is the characteristic of a really nice person? Some people you obviously do like more than others. Andy Warhol: Ummm, well, if they talk a lot. ES: What, and don't make you talk? AW: Yeah, yes, that's a really nice person.
Andy Warhol defined Pop Art.
I just do art because I’m ugly and there’s nothing else for me to do.
I don't think he'd [Andy Warhol] be that amazed because he was so driven to be the Picasso of the second half of the 20th century.
I think Chelsea Girls is a complete masterpiece and I think Andy's [Warhol] films are equally as good as the art. I think one day they will be considered equal. They aren't yet. They will be.
Warhol is the pre-Helnwein.
I was at Plaza Athénée, where a jacket and tie was required. Andy Warhol came with his turtleneck, because he was always wearing a turtleneck, with a tie over it, and we gave him a jacket - so he had a jacket and tie over the turtleneck. It was pretty cool.
You are not truly a Warhol superstar unless you are dead.
After Andy Warhol died, it left a dark cloud over N. Y. C. nightlife.
The most famous living artist in America is Andy Warhol, unfortunately.
For me, Warhol made so much sense.
When I was with Andy Warhol, I thought, 'God, his wig looks cheaper than mine!'
The 60s will be remembered for The Beatles, Andy Warhol and Me!
I like '50s and '60s American art. I have 85 or 90 Warhols.
Realism is always subjective in film. There's no such thing as cinema verite. The only true cinema verite would be what Andy Warhol did with his film about the Empire State Building - eight hours or so from one angle, and even then it's not really cinema verite, because you aren't actually there.
Curator Shantrelle P. Lewis left for Amsterdam an Andy Warhol fellow, and came back with a film in her pocket. Please support this confrontation of the Netherlands' violently passive aggressive racist traditions, by an American Southern, aggressive aggressive. She's a top notch thinker and lover of questions.
I met Andy Warhol in the '60s, a wonderful time, with wonderful people. There was Fred Hughes, and Jed Johnson, who I liked a lot. Jed Johnson decorated my apartment in New York, at the Pierre. It was his first job.
