He makes us see the world of capitalism and consumerism as he sees it. It makes us aware that beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder. And if you look for what`s ugly and depressing that is what you train your brain to see. Warhol is a genius

I'm fascinated by the idea of finding beauty in the ordinary. Because we're told we can do anything, we all grow up believing we're gonna be rockstars and celebrities, when statistically, its very unlikely. Chances are, our lives will be unknown to most of the rest of the world and it won't pause to take notice when we die. When we become adults and figure out all the lies, we become depressed and bitter, but there's no need to be. Its enough to be normal and mundane. This rat-race of wanting to separate ourselves ahead of the pack comes with the price of feeling worthless when we most of us don't achieve it. There might be less depression and anxiety if society decided it was ok to be strive to be a nobody.

Art has always been stuck too far up its own ass. It was inevitable that someone like Andy Warhol would come along to challenge perceptions. The fact that we're still debating his influence to this day proves that he succeeded in the end.

There was a recent article in the New York Times. The article states that Warhol did not die of "routine" gallbladder surgery. That in fact it was emergency surgery and Warhol was critically ill when the surgery was performed. Warhol himself had delayed the surgery which had been recommended for some time but he was deathly afraid of doctors and hospitals. The idea that it was "routine" became an urban legend but not based in true fact.

His parents were from Slovakia, NOT from Czech republic...

Wow, I really enjoyed this look at Warhol! I'm not a fan of his art, but I really liked learning how his brain worked. It's interesting to still see the ripples of his influence today. For me, it's neat to view Warhol as two separate people. The artist & the business man. I'd say that with a lot of artists, you don't see both of these sides often. In some ways there appears to be a curtain or mystery held by some creatives (either intentionally or not). Warhol seems to completely bypass any concept that art is some how secretive or a personal sacred process. He denies the existence of some artistic veil entirely. That is possibly, in my humble opinion, his greatest accomplishment & gift to the modern world.

+Jeremy Orr I'd agree with this video in that Andy Warhol can be seen as an inspiring figure, but that doesn't automatically make him a "really great dude". For one, his opinion that good in business is the best art is highly debatable. At worst, his motivation might have been making easy money by crafting himself the image of a genious artist that people would pay good money for rather than being truly convined by his art. Most of his works after the 1970's for example were made by studios he never even visited, but still put his signature on when they were finished: www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/jonathanjonesblog/2013/jul/24/andy-warhol-legacy-foundation-lawsuits

His parents weren't czech. His parents were ruthenians from eastern Slovakia. And I think when they left the home country, it still belonged to the austrian-hungarian empire.

An interesting video, thanks. I'm glad to have finally been introduced to Warhol, but I still cannot quite agree what he did was what I'd like to think art is. "All things excellent are as difficult as they are rare." - Spinoza. "One must shed the bad taste of wanting to agree with many. "Good" is no longer good when one's neighbor mouths it. And how should there be a "common good"! The term contradicts itself: whatever can be common always has little value. In the end it must be as it is and always has been: great things remain for the great, abysses for the profound, nuances and shudders for the refined, and, in brief, all that is rare for the rare." - Nietzsche

Why abhor what is affordable and widely adopted just because it is affordable and widely adopted? One can think of societies like the ancient Athenians where art was a public good, lauded by a majority of the society and integrated into the everyday life of members of the society. An alternative formulation of this is the old chestnut that just because something is rare doesn't make it valuable.

+hiota45 I'm not against many people experiencing great art or that its mass dispersion devalues its merit (just think how many of Shakespeare's works have been printed, or how many people have visited the Uffizi gallery!), only that great art itself is rare in conception. If everyone could have conceived of Michelangelo's 'David' or Raphael's 'School of Athens' then it would hardly seem as great or valuable to us, but Warhol's art is mass created in the sense that the 'art' he chooses everyone already knows. For example, Warhol photos an ordinary can to convince us of its beauty, whereas the Greeks took their ordinary 'cans' (pottery) and painted them, making them beautiful. I'm sure most people would rather visit the British Museum than the can factory! I'm less of a snob than Warhol, I think the masses are capable of loving great art so I wish to 'bring them up to it' like in the Athenian Theatres and Shakespearean playhouses, rather than him despairing of their ability and so push art 'down to their level', which is the snobbish idea that is destroying great culture - that is, the notion that great art is only for the cultural elite so we have to create a 'common' art that the masses will love and buy, and leave great art in the feudal past.

I miss the Art / Architecture section... you should make more of these, School Of Life... There’s so much to talk about this topic.

Warhol didn’t make the video of himself eating a hamburger. Danish poet/filmmaker jørgen leth did, as part of a film called 66 scenes from America. And as you can see, jørgen forgot to buy him a drink.

I always loved Andy Warhol without quite understanding why - this video illuminates part of the reason why, I think. I've seen excellent docs such as Ric Burns', Ken Burn's bro, HIGHLY recommend y'all.

Wow. Fascinating discussion. Who doesn’t know Mr. Warhol and at least some of his works? But you have inspired me to reconsider his never-ending 15 minutes of fame in an entirely new context. Thank you so much for the video. Steve K.

As a fellow Pittsburgher, I *love* Andy Warhol, and he was certainly a very hard worker and a shrewd business/showman... but I think this is just one more video where I think people are trying to hard to read into and "get" Warhol and his work. Warhol just loved surface-level image and pop culture - and that's it, really. There's nothing to read into. He wasn't trying to "do" anything or change the world or society. I think this is beautifully illustrated by Warhol's own words. In his journal, Andy wrote this about Bianca Jagger: "And Bianca was driving me crazy, saying how she’s researching my days in Pittsburgh for her book on Great Men, and she went on and on about how I broke the system, broke the system, broke the system, and I felt like saying, “Look, Bianca, I’m just here. I’m just a working person. How did I break the system?” God, she’s dumb." I think this about sums it up. But that said, I think Andy Warhol is a really fascinating person. (In fact, I lives just a block away from his house in Oakland, Pittsburgh, during college, and I grew up just a 10 minute drive from where he is buried. I still visit his grave every year and say a prayer for little Andrew Warhola and his parents, which are buried right behind him.)

I've never seen such divided opinions in the comments box on any video, seriously, there's people who hate this guy, people who loves him, people who agrees with his point of view, but do not consider his work as "art", etc. I mean, Warhol creates controversy, I have to give him that one. Personally i think his work is art, because he is leaving his opinions and feelings in their works, in a metaphorical way, I don't like his art, though. However I like his ideas, art maybe mass produced, but maybe not how Warhol did it. Instead of making people appreciate the beauty of mass produced things and tag them "art", perhaps we should make like the Ancient Athenians used to, and have art as a public good, so we wouldn't be stating that the masses aren't capable of appreciating the beauty of "high arts", but we would make them understand them that beauty.

In "Just Kids" Patti Smith said something along the lines that Andy Warhol didn't appeal to her as much as he did to Robert (Mapplethorpe) because she preferred artists who affected the societies they were in, not just reflect them. But after watching this video I'm disagreeing with Patti (surprisingly)! It seems like Warhol was one of the artists who actually affected society the most.

+rollership We have apps that make repetitive 4-up Warhol silk-screen style self portraits,our pocket. We carry an apparatus with the capacity to stylistically replicate 1 artist, on command. That is the very definition of casting an epic shadow. Picasso is rightfully credited with as having the 20th Century's greatest work of art: Les Demoiselles d'Avignon. Not the first modernist work, but the one that planted the flag for the genre. No single Warhol approaches it. Warhol was more about overwhelming the world through all media available. Warhol is the most ubiquitous, the most culturally pervasive, even when measured against Picasso's prolific output. The two were so different, had such different objectives, they defy comparison. It's subjective and we should not have to defend ourselves, we should foster the appreciation of art. Which is not to say Patti Smith is wrong. Yet when we love someone and they die young, while they can still be forgiven, while we can envision a future in which their ceiling remains forever unlimited, they undergo the inevitable apotheosis. In love v.s. anyone, love always wins. She will always love Robert, her objectivity is tainted, but in the most noble way. Just Kids is considered by many her masterpiece. I have not listened to all her music, read all her poetry, seen the legendary performances. I can't say if it is her best work, it is definitely a masterwork.

+Theodore LaCava The Abstract Expressionists rejected Warhol, despised Warhol, and inspired Warhol to outmaneuver them. There's a story of De Kooning confronting Warhol at private opening in the in the Guggenheim, in the company Peggy Guggenheim and about 20 critics and host of dealers. It was meant to sink Warhol, for who most critics and curators were coming around, slowly, cautiously, but had not made up their minds. De Kooning had a plan. To point out everything that was wrong and send Warhol back into commercial art where he had been for 13 years. He called him every homophobic slur in book, derided his his personality, blamed him for everything in the world. But everyone just stared at De Kooning. When it became apparent he was embarrassing himself, he walked away. Ms. Guggenheim was not pleased. Warhol turned to Ms. Guggenheim and said "Gee whiz that's too bad. I always liked Willem's work". There was a nervous laugh. But Ms. Guggenheim, who was Pollack's most significant patron and career promoter, had an epiphany: Warhol wasn't the problem with world. It was people like De Kooning, with their biases, their intolerance, their ignorance, their unkindness, their lack of basic civility: it revealed a viciousness then strongly associated with fire houses and attack dogs. She, the most powerful woman in the art word, decided, then and there, that was what wrong was with the world. Times were changing. It was no longer OK to call a person a faggot to their face. It was ugly. The attack was, by-and-large, without substantive merit, it was a rage: a personality indictment. De Kooning did not make a case for the validly of AE over Pop. He left the most powerful people in the art world thinking that he was out of touch with all that was going within the social context of the sixties. They wondered how did he feel about the Civil Rights movement, the Women's Movement, or was his hatred merely confined to homosexuals? Warhol's bland passivity in the face of this struck them. He idly stood by while De Kooning dug his own grave. He was the smarter man. It was on that day, that the shift that eventually the ushered out Abstract Expressionism, a white, heterosexual, homophobic, intolerant, nearly entirely male movement, took shape. It was that insane spiel of vitriolic disdain that cost the Abstract Expressionists their hegemony. And spelled a critical free fall in the genre. It was a club no longer in the best interests of the gatekeepers to endorse, as it was apparent that to follow would be swimming against the tide. It is not the artist that holds the power.

Great work -

excellent video

andy warhol was a genius artist because he forced you to see everything in a new way, and he purposefully didn't want to leave anybody out. he figured it was hardly worth it if one's art was only distributed to art museums and rich people. he was being artistic in a way that many have a hard time understanding. of course simpletons were drawn to his work, but that didn't bother warhol. think how many posh artists strive to put as much meaning in their work as possible only to end up with few followers because the work ends up being too prudish or intellectual for the common man's interest. it's much easier to start an artistic movement from the bottom-up by limiting any extraneous meaning and keeping the work simple--and in the process end up producing rather high-level work that is filled with meaning when placed in the right context. warhol was redefining what art was while simultaneously making a momentous statement by "living the life" and "playing the part" of a stereotypical eccentric artist, but with much more expansive ideas and a very different attitude concerning how to proceed with his career. all of these things made warhol the unique individual he was, which in itself granted him fame. people were now paying attention to the "high art"; and with people paying attention, warhol had the freedom to make statements that would be taken seriously. it was all a way to manufacture a new sense of meaning in art, an art that can live and evolve to take many forms, and continue to grow and be influential.

Where do you live? Under a rock? Art has evolved so much since Warhol. There have been so many influential artists since, in this century and the last. You just aren’t aware of it in. Warhol was defined by the 20th century not the other way around. He fiercely embraced a commercial drive factory made society, like many. He embodied American ideals and the American dream. Who valued money, fame, capitalism, and glamour. And feared death, poverty and not being remembered. Indeed, Pop Art's fundamental marriage to commercial mass media signaled the end of an era for artists. And the beginning of another time around the 1970’s. The major artists of the half century following the master Marcel Duchamp, were innovators who embraced not only painting, but also other mediums and more importantly technology and unusual techniques. Salvador Dali. David Hockney. Banksy. Jeff Koons. Tracey Emin. Madonna. Louise Bourgeois. Andrew Thomas Huang. Gerhard Richter. Stanley Kubrick. Bjork. Jack Smith. Wassily Kandinsky. Keith Haring. David Bowie. Mathew Barney. George Lucas. David Lynch. Diane Arbus. Ridley Scott. David Hammons. Yves Klein. Mark Rothko. Stephen Spielberg. Jean-Michel Basquiat. Cindy Sherman. Damien Hirst. Martin Scorsese. David Fincher. Chris Burden. Robert Mapplethorpe. Helmut Newton. Steven Klein. James Turrell. Marina Abramović. Ingmar Bergman. Bob Dylan. Ru Paul. David Lachapelle. Irving Penn. Vangelis. Frank Lloyd White. Alfred Hitchcock. Steven Meisel. Ai Weiwei. Henri Cartier-Bresson. Federico Fellini. Kraftwerk. Robert Doisneau. Guy Bourdin. John Cage. Philip Glass. Grant Wood. Jasper Johns. Pierre et Gilles. Joan Miro. Bo Bartlett. Harvey Lloyd. Zaha Hadid. James Bidgood. Jean-Paul Goude. Grace Jones. Jean-Michel Jarre. The list is endless. We fail to forget that art is time dependant and sometimes not appreciated until long after the artist has passed. Warhol wasn’t so much influential in his time, as he was an anti-artist, a philosopher and fame whore (which is why you are mistaken in thinking him as the last influential artist, just as a teenager might mistake Kim Kardashian as the only influential “artist”, today) Big mistake! Art began with an "era of imitation, followed by an era of ideology, followed by the “Danto defined” post-historical era in which, with qualification, anything goes. After WWII, the perception of humanity changed as did the idea of art. It’s definition. It’s function. There were no longer stylistic or philosophical constraints. No mediums off limits. You need to look around you again and again. We are imbued in art. More so now than ever before.

i think we have a feeling for tinking that all upon art it is always "good" first, what is good for you? then why is it good for your idea of good? art it's one way to express somthing, beneath some espesific things, that then you will make your own idea, you will change the meaning of everithing, just being you, so you are just peer at art and you are peer at you, but in a indirect way, so i think art is as every little thing at universe endless-usage and we as humans just look at it as humans, and look as humans means that we can use art for fun, love, happiness, hate, power, tenderness, disdain, longing, sadness etc. so, is art and none of them are "good" or "bad" just when you close your insigh of the universe is when you achive get some insight of art, yet close your sight of the word does not mean you are daft, just that when you look at the universe with philosopher eyes you cannot cling of only one think, but art allows you cling and something deeper, the art allows you go throught you, on your vein, whithout leaving out your-self; and more important does not with prejudges like "good" at least you want to. in humans feelings that's what "have power" means, the capacity of feel safe having the control, the art allows you have the control of your-self again as well. yet i don't like this artist, just sell art, saying art is this and this, and has reazon but just for him.self. i think.

he didn't record himself,someone wanted to record Andy for their film project...can't trust this channel tbh

Makes me consider potentially opening up something like a hotel, or an apartment building, or a restaurant that combines my love of art, architecture, business, and helping people. thanks for the new ideas x

WOW !!!

It's magic! I’m a fan of Andy Warhol, I sing his life and his death "Warhol’s Word", played on my channel!

I think everyone should read his book ‘the philosophy of andy warhol’ it put his work -which i still somewhat dislike- in a much better view for me

It would be interesting to see a video on Basquiat

Great video. What about one on Van Gogh or Jackson pollock?

WHAT IS THAT SONG IN THE BACKGROUND???!!!?! Fucking amazig melody. Also Warhol rocks too of course

Can you do a clip about (insert name of obscure cultural figure who being able to name makes me look cool) next?

LOVE your series!!! Think you can do Frida Kahlo??
