Reflective Log: Documentary: '1/4 Day in the Life of Andy Warhol'



Internet Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OK-CVKKED0s
by Art Documentaries / BBC on Youtube

Key Points:

  • Warhol was simplistic, made copies of consumer items such as Brillo Boxes or Campbell Soup Cans. "The pop art painter had already made people see the commercial world around them in a new way" (Art Documentaries, 2015)
  • Andy Warhol's Factory & employees (who he employs to help him make work)
  • Christies sold Warhol's Mona Lisa 56 million in 2014, his value increased after death. 

Reflections:

  • Andy Warhol shows similarities with themes to that of my work for example consumerism, and showing the public the consumer world in a new way.
