Andy saw me at parties where I was a 'waiter' and always spoke to me. He was very kind, and did have a positive aura that made one feel important. God bless Andy.
goodboybuddy1 : lucky 🍀 you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You are sooo coooooolll man! I wanna touch you now.. BOOOORIINGGGGG
Ya that didn't happen
What a nice comment....! Ive just watched three interviews and I gathered a very kind sweetness about him
When I was a young fashion model and I moved to New York, Andy and I locked eyes on the street one time. It was January 1984, I was standing there, kind of lost and looking around and he stood out in the crowd and he was looking at me, I'm 5' 10" and I was signed with Elite Model Agency, so I stood out too back then. I wish I had gone up to him and introduced myself but I was too shy to have done that back then.
That’s a cool memory and even if you had said hi I don’t know if it would’ve made it that much cooler
@@FknNefFy Ha ha that's funny. I see what you mean, come to think of it.
Had my " 15 minutes of fame " viewing Andy.Warhol's original artwork at a Andy.Warhol art exhibition in Prague .I was in the city at the right time and along with normal sightseeing got to view a original art exhibition by one of the World's top Western artists. As a cat owner myself loved his series of painting on cats.Viewed Mick.Jagger, Marilyn.Monroe and Chairman Mao which were some of the most prominent exhibits. This is a excellent biography documentary that doesn't get the viewer bored if not a artist by profession.
This is one of the best produced and intelligent documentaries on Andy Warhol I've seen. Thank you.
To everyone who hates Warhols art I'm sure he would thank you for those of us who love it I'm sure he would thank us that is what are is supposed to do ! We are supposed to feel something about it . That's the deeper meaning to all art plus whatever comment the artist is making in the piece
Andy Warhol is inspirational beyond belief!! I love him so much
+Andrew Phillips Agreed. A hardworking man that never stopped working or trying new things.
i think there's no point in trying to read any sort of deeper meaning into warhol's art, and a lot of people just can't get their head around it (including the presenter). they try to see "something" but there is nothing. no more meaning, deepness or significance than there is in a tv-commercial. and i guess that's what makes it sort of significant, and that's the genius of andy warhol. there is absolutely nothing in there.
Pertti Heinikko would what you just described be the deeper meaning if Warhol was reflecting the world and media through products and his art was extremely superficial
nothing is something though
I feel as if his art is very unaware of its significance. With the pictures of Monroe you can see the sadness, but I don’t believer was really looking to display that... he just so happened to do so and thought it looked rather sad.
It is exactly what modern capitalistic way of life means, superficial and plasticized, no depth at all, we consume color and sensations without much thinking. America is a mix of garbage, superficiality and great technical prowess. It will all pass and finish into oblivion with time, what will remain is the history of human foolishness linked with accumulation of private wealth without limits while humanity swim into poverty of the mind and living conditions. A kind of mediocrity covered with a varnish of wealth only possible by the abuse of private property of the social wealth produced by the multitude. Never mind, we all die one day, with or without the image of such circus.
👍👍
Thank you for making this ad free for now!
Fantastic video! Pittsburgh is a place I lived in for many years and visited the Andy Warhol Museum multiple times💙
I'm actually _not_ a huge fan of Warhol's actual _art_, but....I think he was a master of aestheticism; blurring the lines between cookie-cutter kitsch & the holy masterpiece, low class & high class, serious & playful, etc. He was incredibly committed to living out his aesthetic ideals, right down to his silvery plastic blank-template personality. Dali was similar in that respect, albeit coming from a _very_ different perspective. I don't like Warhol as an artist all that much...and if I ever had met the guy, I doubt I'd like him much as a person. But...as an aesthetic ringmaster, he was quite the idiosyncratic genius. In short, he was *_interesting_*, more than most people ever _could_ be.
Hillarious to see other's 'interpretations' of Andy's work. They are so confused!! lol. RIP Andy. Gone TOO soon!!
There was so much about this man I was not aware of. Thank you for this documentary.
This art is relevant, but the revelation can only happen once.
people really need to stop discrediting warhol, and saying he has no influence on modern culture, art, music, fashion, and in general the way we live. by all means, dislike the art. hate on his ideas and talk crap about the avant garde. without warhol we likely wouldn't have bowie, lou reed, and many modern and commercial artists we see today. he changed the face of art, so hate on it if you must (and only if you absolutely must), but don't for a second have any doubt that he was influential. because he was *massively* influential
Ruth Carmel Kirby Well said Ruth! Absolutely "massive" and still is to this day...
+Ruth Kirby Warhol is a legend and likely the most influential artist to new generations of artists by far.
Without Warhol, we probably wouldn't also have the disgusting obsession with celebrity culture and the over-saturated green slime that comes out of the television and poisons our society by making it a cookie-cutter consumer landscape.
So I guess you take the bad with the good.
EDIT: Oooof this is bad satire. I wish I could unsay this.
he's the GOAT
BERNIE slow down...
"everyone will be famous for 15 mins" is so true cause you can see all these social media trends with people just blowing up overnight for a stupid video and then disappear off the minds of the general public within the next 2 weeks
Poopy , just bc years and years after this death, someone invented Facebook, and social media, does absolutely not make this freak a prophet. 🙄
Elizabeth Leclair Nope dumb bitch! But made him wayyyyyyy ahead of his time. His thought process was 40+ years Ahead while you’re barely catching up 🤔
@@UnoHoo1 When you have to say "just because" you are already recognizing that something did happen!! Bye...
Remember that Andy meant that in a derogatory way -- people would be famous for no reason. And in that regard he just absolutely nailed it.
So true
I am a complete ignorant on the materia, may be I am talking nonsense. But to me Warhol is more a genius of marketing than of art. At least is the conclusion I got from watching this series of 4 episodes.
Agreed. I'm actually _not_ a huge fan of Warhol's actual _art_, but....I think he was a master of aestheticism; blurring the lines between cookie-cutter kitsch & the holy masterpiece, low class & high class, serious & playful, etc. He was incredibly committed to living out his aesthetic ideals, right down to his silvery plastic blank-template personality.

Balcon Frances the
you're not ignorant, you nailed it on the head.
Carla was so kind and is the definition of class, grace, and poise. Lichtenstein was doing cartoons that influenced him.
His meaning becomes more important as time goes on.
The best thing about Andy in my opinion was his Relationship with kindred spirit Basquiat.
Thanks. Well done...
I love your documentaries and hope you got to keep your screened image.
So good!!
If art is what ever the artist makes then what makes an artist?
god is the greatest artist
@@BielichDai god is dead
I can tell you first hand. It is bravery...
Personality
dennis hopper should have made this documentary
"Bruno, can I borrow some money?"
Awe! So nice of the owner of serendipitys to put his pictures up!
One person can say his art is interesting. Another can say that it isn't. It is up the the single viewer whether a piece of art is enjoyable. Nobody can define whether art is interesting since it applies to all who view it.
Anyone ever watch Bob's Burgers? It has that Andy Warhol kind of feel to it.
I agree with you that the death and disaster series paintings are his best work. There is a saying attributed to Dali that "The first man to compare a woman's cheek to a rose was undoubtedly a genius and the second likely an idiot". No artist does that apply to more than Andy. He was a complete original and utterly uncopyable in any meaningful way.
I’m sorry as an illustrator myself this just burns me and fuels my jealousy guy comes to New York shows his work taking it out of a paper bag and lands gig at a fashion magazine I was born and raised in New York I had a portfolio and I was just as good but here I am reading about him listening to his TH-cam video and nobody knows who I am
TU:-) " Art is about recording your own time..." Profound.
Good or bad, we really have to get over Andy... That is my suggestion to all artists as a fellow artist... Time has sawn the goods and the bads... You only have to realise what is happening now and you will understand my point... Stay creative people!!! You don't have to be patronised!!!
When was this recorded? Thanks
Love pop art
Holy sh-t Dennis Hopper looks really good!!
Sometimes, what you see is what it is.
He was a very, very smart person. A good business man. An eccentric business man but artists Idk about that. I don't discredit him because he came up with his own ideas and concepts. He also used other people's work to get rich and call himself an artist. It's a 50/50. I can see why artist would be offended by it.
The beautiful Brix!
Can anyone tell me what is the name of the song playing at the end in the credits? Thanks
Fame. David Bowie. Written by David Bowie and John Lennon. Huge record on the American soul charts.
6:33 song name?
23:25 Notice that striped shirt, an image element he stole from Picasso. :-)
lol.
There is not a single mention of Jean Michel Basquiat! What?
Dude, Exactly!
Why in every video about Andy has to have Basquiat? it doesn't have to
True theres no mention but a picture was shown of them together... So that's something!!
@dan cussin Obviously you care if you're replying to me about it and watched the documentary. lol
@dan cussin His social commentary is important. You must be white...
I think Warhol more of a Graphic designer then anything else
if that!
Warhol said if he could have any face in the world it would be Debbie Harrys.
What is that song around *38:00*?? I *_must_* know....I absolutely *_love_* that descending bass riff. Sounds so sexy and dark. Kinda reminds me of Pink Floyd's "Lucifer Sam" a bit. Can anyone tell me what it is? I've searched far and wide, and just cannot find it....though it sounds super familiar. I assumed it was a Velvet Underground song, but after listening to damn near every song they ever released, I didn't find it. Though, it did reignite my love for the Velvets. :)
www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00sbj4w :))
Pink Floyd debut studio album Piper. Same album as 'Lucifer Sam', but it's 'Interstellar Overdrive'.
When you're forced to 58 minutes and 12 seconds of a documentary for college... Dying both inside and outside
Andy went to Japan and was heavily influenced by what he saw there aesthetically. All the early consumer based imagery is directly linked to the Japanese concept of the 'every day object'. Also you have to watch the best Japanese movies from the late 50's. The theater graphics are obviously very influential. You don't need to speak Japanese to get it. Andy is a 'visual' artist and all you need to do is LOOK. He also never used the word No, and there IS no word for No in the Japanese language, only Yes. Andy said No to Death and that's when he became a mere mortal.

Inspector Rubio liked this video
what is the name of the man hosting this ?
alastair sooke
pardon me, but not all of us embark on the consumer/ celebrity driven lifestyle warhol was so obsessed with. not all of us watch tv, or buy the latest magazines and fashions, nor do we all idolise actors, and other egomaniacs. it's remarkable how myopic people become when they talk about him; ascribing us all with his obsessions. that's totally incorrect. whilst i like some of warhol's work's composition, and his use of colour and technique, i wouldn't really mind if he never existed. i see much more substance in other artists, and i imagine warhol had nightmares about not being able to match their abilities, hence his perpetual need to connect with more substantial individuals, which gave him a sense of importance. i see him as an illustrator, and that is where his artistic talent resides. we are talking way too much about these banality driven "modern artists" and i wonder what gems we have overlooked, as art critics and museums are so dazzled by their nonsense. get a grip. basquiat was much more interesting, by far, and like many other real artists, perished in this insane warholian universe, that statements like the one offered up in this programme created. i did very much enjoy the other three accompanying documentaries, though.
ultravioletpilot I agree with you. I strongly believe he was nothing more than a famous commercial artist. I have seen more evocative creations produced by seventh graders. He was probably very intelligent sociologically, and figured out exactly how to market himself to sell his work.
Of course my opinion is disqualified by the fact that I didn't do a lot drugs nor do I mingle with celebrities. Probably doesn't help that that I believe an artist work is more important than the artist and inspiration should beholden by the audience.
+Lumberjack Lollipop THANK YOU FOR THIS!!! I totally agree!
nicely covered! In the end, Warhol's so called 'work' acted to deflate the notion of fine art.
What would he have thought of social media?
Love Basquiat
The greatest ever.
Its funny,the reporter seems to know Andy better than those who knew him. Even with the fashion girl,two people who weren't born when he died,yet they knew more details than those who were there.
Warhol was an interesting, highlighting observer + moreover, he loved dogs.
Wasn't it cats?
If the only positive things about this man was that he liked dogs or cats, I rest my case.
Elizabeth Leclair Did you not read the beginning of the sentence?
Pop art wasn't actually that new!!!!
Rauschenberg had started the pop art movement nearly 10 years prior and Roy Lichenstein was Warhol's contemporany and was just as important to start with as Warhol was.
Love warhol
Warhol was a marketing genius. He sold the world garbage and people are still lining up to pay for it
Look at you with that #smalldickenergy
Does anybody know the song at 31:30?
utterreasons Billie Jean by Michael Jackson.
Theme from "Midnight Cowboy" th-cam.com/video/ZGORPUzLxtU/w-d-xo.html
It’s pretty good like Marilyn Monroe. He could do me.
I actually think that Dali is more of an Artist. I guess Commercial Art is Art
If Andy Warhol is a "good artist" then so is Kim Kardashian :P
Andy may have been the most influential in terms of our modern day, but I'm not sure if overall I like the kind of world we live in :P
Re 24:53 the narrator/host reminds me far more of Milo Yiannopoulos, minus his expletives, tnan Andy Warhol because of voice and physique.
What ever happened to copyright infringement? Makes me wonder how many times this so called artist got sued?
why do you think so? did he plagiarize something?
I know I am commenting a lot sorry. I wish people could give more comprehensive thought-provoking answers to why they thought he was good and what is ability was all about rather than just saying that he had this “In a magic” what does that even mean anyway. So sorry I know I’m dripping with jealousy but I’ve already admitted that in a previous post
what's the song at 25:11?
+Georgina Gallagher The legendary David Bowie, the song is Changes check him out!
yeah i know now haha, thanks tho
Oddly enough, no mention at all about his wildly exploitative nature, his lack of payment to those he used,-then simply tossed aside, after they were no longer of use to him. He was most definitely obsessed with using, and in some cases, shamelessly exploiting them, in the name of selling them super stardom. He made so much money off exploiting others, and never paid any of them a dime, claiming he did not have any money! He was a user of people, and a sick voyeur. I have long been fascinated by the idea that people actually had respect for him, because of his true nature.
When I was younger, and more naive, I thought he was cool. Now, he makes me sick, and actually pretty much defines the word, sycophant. To top it off, his work, which, as you pointed out, he often didn’t even do himself, through the use of silk screen. He was an extreme oddball, with an affectation that was extremely unbecoming. He was a terrible gossip, never picked up a tab in his life, and then, ran off to church and home to his mommy. Let’s do try to keep him in perspective, shall we?
Did u know him personally?
Salvador Dali pissed on one of his Marilyn Monroe's that was gifted to him.. Enough said
nothing was said
Johnny Utah dali insisted he was the best living artist. which could have been true. remember art is always subjective and all this proves is Dali's narcissism
A piss is worth a thousand words.
Salvador Dali was egotistic because of his success.
I'm sure Gala regretted that later on!
Yeah, cause there weren’t any celebrities before Andy Warhol. Pffffft!
Vanilla? As in something somewhere in the realm of normal. Let’s get right down to it. He was 100% a voyeur. “Andy liked to watch.” Indeed he did! He made the balls, tossed them out there, then loved to sit back and watch the destruction. He was a sick guy!
_Calcified chalky coral knives cut into the ruby red wine veins of fleshy marshmallow bellies, bleeding out a thin sheen of silvery rainbow hologram oil puddles, filling the spring air with the scent of bloody knees and cut grass._
How strange was the resemblance between art drawing Andy Warhol and Madonna' book ? In fact, I think it's very awkward ?! It is so the same...Wonder if it was done with permission of...or made it ''just like that'' so ''nobody'' will see the resemblance which is hard to believe ??? Hum....?
pop aaart
How can they make a documentary about andy warhol and not mention edie sedgwick
Because....bubbles. Don't ask. Bubbles fuck shit up on the regular. Calcified chalky coral cuts into the ruby red wine veins of fleshy marshmallow bellies, bleeding out a thin sheen of silvery rainbow hologram oil puddles, filling the spring air with the scent of bloody knees and cut grass. o___O Make sense?
Tylor Deyn who’s Eddie¿
[ Vincent ! ! ! ]. =]]
There are few other areas of human existence where it truly doesn't matter what you think. It matters what the next person thinks. Was Andy Warhol a great artist? He was the greatest! Not the best. Art is too subjective to name a best. It all comes down to tastes. Personally, I think Campbell's Soup is Mmmm, Mmm, good!!! I am his circus after all, I must know!
When I went to art school there was a study that found fans of his prints had a fondness of the texture and smell of shit.
Tell me how in the wide world of sports you’re going to secure a gig any gig at a fashion magazine when you’re taking your piddly drawings out of a freaking paper bag!???
OMG, he finally took his shirt off! Hahaha, i've been waiting for this. ahaha, this guy's HOT.
Get a fucking life
was he a rerflector or a generator?
reflector, in my opinion. a mastermind curator.
he enjoyed covering things in foil.
They dance weird in the 60.s
With “ only” 200 dollars in his pocket?? That was a lot.
Okay, go to New York today (2020) with about $1,750 USD & we'll see how far you get.
TAROTAI No lies detected!
he just know how to make money - its never art - everybody can do this.
Basquiat should get mass support from his fellow sub-literates: like knows like. Like that leper with the road-kill on his bald-head.
15:20 but my question is who reads "books like these?"
not art
art is SUPPOESED TO BE A WINDOW TO A GOOD PLACE IN THE MIND
this is a window to a bad place in the world
No so. Guernica is one of the greatest masterpieces of the 20th century, and it certainly did not take you to a good place - in fact that was the point. This is not the only example.
Andy was a alien.
I don't think Warhol's art does a very good job at being art, which is to say, I don't like looking at it. I think that Warhol's art is quite literally an eyesore, like an unkempt lawn, or a poorly spray-painted car. While this is all only my opinion I certainly respect Warhol's contribution and status as an artist.
Andy Warhol
Capitalism is interestingly not what made the 50s great but the Socialism of the New Deal. So anyone saying this artist is an apologist for Capitalism is technically right but aestheticly wrong?
Bowie being "obsessed" with Andy? Sorry, that's a statement going way to far.
Before andy died he lived with his mother, remained celibate an went to daily mass...
How is his art Not pure 0Plagiarism?
Presenter could have been a bit more insightful...
The girl who write the book "Scum" , is in prison right know?
Hi Sugeyita,
After being charged with attempted murder, assault, and illegal possession of a gun. She was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and pleaded guilty to "reckless assault with intent to harm", serving a three-year prison sentence, including psychiatric hospital time. After her release, she continued to promote the SCUM Manifesto.
She died April 25, 1988 (aged 52) of pneumonia, in San Francisco.
Hope that answers your question... -Mikos
Major kiss up to this Carla woman.😝Oh brother! 🙄🤮
Andy Warhol was a very different type of person. Different isn't always bad. "Different" in Warhol's case means brilliant when it comes to his art and many of the things he did with The Factory. Most people cringe when you mention his name. Warhol himself was not as aware of how talented he was. His major fault was letting street people with no talent use him on his dime. His immense talent attracted famous people like rock stars to drop by The Factory when in town to see his latest projects. Edie Sedgwick really could have been a famous actress. She started to hang around with the wrong people at The Factory who pushed heavy drugs her way. Edie's drug problem that eventually killed her was mostly on her. We all are, including Edie, responsible for our own dangerous behaviours. For those watching this video, don't you wish you were as different as Andy - (minus his unfortunate early passing?) Looks are overrated. I would trade my looks in for Andy's talent instantaneously.
Being forced to watch this confirms how much I hate Andy Warhol.
A.W. managed to slip through the cracks of failure/obscurity, and get noticed by a gullible media, Wala ! Behold the master
I really believe that Warhol's talent is overrated.
As much I have tried endlessly to comprehend What Mr Warhol's work is really about - I simply cannot see his so called "artistic contribution" - I rather see his work as a promoter of the changing society's appeal & voracity for advertising & glossy graphics over painting & traditional art's mediums....... quite frankly do not see what difference he made....
+hufemeve So, then dont like it. 10s to 100s of millions see his art differently though.
It's funny that what he envisioned is exactly what our reality is today. But a lot cheaper. Anyone with no talent can become famous for no reason whatsoever.
+mascottie So then you can become famous?
