More than anything else, Andy Warhol was an opportunist. He wasn't an artist in the general sense. He didn't possess fantastic drawing ability. Nor was he a great painter. But he understood Capitalism. He found a clever way to attract attention to his brand of art. The timing was great-the 1960s was a revolutionary decade. It served him well. That in turn made him famous and rich. However, if anyone else had come up with this gimmick, would Warhol still have been considered a great artist??
I agree with much of this. Warhol's genius was recognising the opportunity and exploiting it to the full. He wanted to be rich and famous and as he said, 'who ever heard of a famous graphic designer' - his previous career. which he was very successful at. Art was a much better vehicle for achieving fame and wealth.
Andy Warhol, in 1980 I meet Andy in a bar in Redondo Beach, CA. he introduced him self as Andy. we spent the evening talking. I told him that I was working on a painting, and started describing my painting to Andy, of a desert sunset eclipsed by the desert landscape. he told me told me that he was an artist. I had just gotten out of the military. at the time my only art training was in high school art class, perspective drawing, and color theory. Andy said that he had to go, and off he went with a person that told me, " Andy likes you for some reason" and Andy said good by.
I have never met him myself, but from what I've read he was a very enigmatic character. You were lucky he spent time talking to you, apparently he didn't do that with everyone he met. Cheers Paul
@@ArtHistorySchool It really isn't, unless you've completely missed the point. I have a number of high quality silk screen prints and glycolate prints of pictures by several artist hanging on the wall of our small bungalow, they were relatively inexpensive and their quality is good enough that to my eye at least they're all but indistinguishable from the originals and just a good. Posters are almost as good, although they tend to deteriorate fairly quickly. It think that was in fact one of main points that Warhol in particular was making.
Fans should watch Andy Warhol's "Bad" It is an amazing film. And the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh is a terrific, well-executed single-topic museum Warhol was one of the greats of the 20th century.
I remember his film 'Empire State Building' being shown at the film society at college many years ago. I managed about an hour, but some actually watched the whole thing - 8 hours. Amazing
Andy thinking outside of the box to his approach to art is something to be admired. Hopefully one of these years I get a opportunity to live the American dream like Andy, because right now I have to be asleep to beleive it.
Warhol was a master marketeer. He certainly had the chops as a commercial designer, but moving the art world to accept his output as fine art took true genius.
I've always loved Warhol's playfulness with color. He definitely makes an interesting contrast to Sister Corita Kent. (Haven't thought of Philip Pearlstein in years.)
Fabulous coverage of an interesting artist, Paul! Warhol's simplicity echoed that of Buddhism, except for being so pricey and elite. I would have enjoyed having him as an art student or classmate! By the way, in your description, you forgot to capitalize Brillo to honor the trademark. Decapitalized, it's just a slang term for brilliant, which Warhol certainly was, but probably not the boxes. Just a friendly tip. Peace. 💖
I love your Arti host style! Such an wonderful and informal video! Really made for artists level! I so appreciate your work! Hoping one day you will teach us how to be personal style in front of camera! You are more than qualified enough to teach acting! Or at least you portrayed a very interesting host performance. I enjoy your acting more than watching Oscar night 😁😁👍👍👍👍👍 Thank you for being such an Artist! So inspiring!!😁💢💢💢🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much! I think calling me an actor is stretching credibility a bit. I just try to be myself in front of the camera. Happy Christmas. Cheers

I don't know why the camera has a monster effect. Hope one day you will shine your talent on teaching us how to be comfortable with ourself in front of camera😀 My wishful thinking!!!😄💫
"I am a deeply superficial person." That encapsulates the schismatic difficulty of Warhol's works. Is there anything *deep* [enriching, inspiring, uplifting, informative, original] about *superficial* repeated visual cliches? Standing before his works I feel nothing.
He freely admitted, 'surface is everything there is no meaning behind my work'. His genius was to make himself famous and very rich by exploiting the rich and famous.
Thanks for nice Videos Paul ! Enjoying watching them regularly. " Interesting info : an American Artist Ray Johnson ... ( it seams to me, was source of Andy's Pop art ideas . (???) ).
All I knew about Warhol was the sleazy commercial side and artificially produced fame which are a thing but.....there is more. Thank you for your wonderful work that is enjoyable entertainment and education. Ps. Love the wig and leather jacket!
Paul, you’ve done it once again...fascinating overview. I suspect this one was a bit more FUN for you...a sort of Tongue-In-Cheek...reference to art? I certainly notice your leather jacket and white tee-shirt...FONZ style! Then when you added the WIG and Sunglasses it cracked me up. I have mixed feelings about Andy Warhol. I admire his gutsy determination and his penchant for marketing. It is challenging for me to think of his art in the same manner as I do some of the other more dedicated artists that are well known. In some ways I like Peter Max’s art better...for this genre. On the other hand, who am I to judge? My ‘art’ is whimsical, colorful, often purposefully humorous and not what you would call fine art at all. Yet it is the way I express...it is just that so far I am not paid for it! In this respect, Andy Warhol was way ahead of me! Such is life...love and laughter! Thank you again! Jimm
Thanks for your kind comment. I did enjoy making the video and I agree with view of Warhol. He was a marketing genius and in someways art was simply a vehicle for achieving wealth and fame. Having said that he did create some iconic images. Cheers
El Sr. Andy fue un excelente ilustrador, un excelente relaciones públicas que en la Factoria, su campo de batalla, supo rodearse de un grupo de fans, un tanto estrafalarios ( llamemoles así) que por sus excentricidades y escándalos lo auparon a la fama. A él y ha muchos de ellos, también.
Hi. Please can you make more RUclips videos. For example. When the oil colours were used.. Type of art schools... And please talk about arabic and china Arts. Thank you
Hi, I make lots of videos about artists and drawing and painting. These are my areas of expertise. I do not feel I have enough expertise relating to Arabic and Chinese arts to create an authoritive video.
Well done as usual. The Warhol museum in Pittsburgh is well worth the trip. Dear narrator- the wig gag was a tad too long. (Especially given that great coif you sport).
I always try to keep an open mind, to "get it"....but in all honesty....never "got" this work....what was a soup can image, supposed to transmit? What is it supposed to make me think or feel?.... Ignorant me, I know....but I have always felt this is the kind of artist built on mere P.R. and hype, than on actual substance....I find way more substance in YOUR videos.
It many ways you are right. His art has no meaning as such, it's not about beauty, passion, there is no tale to tell, it was done simply to reflect the society in which he lived. His brilliance was to use society to exploit society. People bought soup cans by the millions, so why shouldn't they buy prints of it? He exploited the greed and vanity of the consumer society. When you think about it, you could buy a box of brillo pads for a few dollars in a shop, but Warhol made brillo boxes, put them in a gallery and sold them for hundreds of dollars. Brilliant! Art was the vehicle he used to become rich and famous, just as other people have used banking, tech etc. Glad you enjoy my videos, by the way.
Would't you mentioning Andy's homosexuality be useful to some kids? The same with his drug use. Wouldn't it be useful to mention that HIV was the real cause of his death?
I made this video for use in schools. Some schools, particularly in some states in the US are not allowed to show a nude figure no matter how innocuous, so a video that discussed Andy's drug use and homosexuality would be off the agenda. Whether this is a good or bad thing is for the individual institution to decide. There is no reason why my video cannot be used to open up about those questions in the appropriate context. The medical report of his death describes complications from a gall bladder operation. Andy was very sick when he reached hospital, remember he had been shot a couple of years before. His gall bladder was gangrenous, his heart was beating irregularly which caused a heart attack from which he died. HIV is a myth and based on assumption.
I was a prodigy in the fifties and sixties. "Artists" (the ones who need validation) are "con-folk". If you don't sell not a lot will notice. To sell (show) you have to charm "certain individuals" - I'm still a prodigy. It's business, don't take it personally. There are a few people in the hills of L.A. who have some of my teenage work and could care less if I starved to death. GodIhate artists. I'll get over it. Actually I haven't seen those hillfolk in 45 years and I don't know their last names. Maybe they would buy me an espresso SINCE I GAVE THEM MY PAINTINGS. No regrets. Vincent, I'm working on yer song, mate, I have a brand new verse. No...no, Vincent, the other ear...
As a Yorkshireman I would suggest you sit down with a pint of Old Peculier (if you can get it where you live) and chill. It's dark and 6% goes down a treat.
@@ArtHistorySchool -...and as an Angelino I feel the need expose my sobriety, since 1982. I saw Ozzie at meetings, I saw Bowie at meetings, the list goes on. Brits have a peculiar way of spelling things. All beers are available in L.A. Now I want to taste it, thanks a lot.
I've always hated Warhol's stuff. I especially hate his iconography of Elvis, Marilyn and Elizabeth Taylor. Begrudgingly, I have to admit Warhol is correct in trashing traditional Christian Iconography. Celebrities and porn stars are the new "saints." Our modern world is trash. Warhol is trash. We are all trash. Warhol made it all too clear that all human life is trash.
I think I'd scream out loud, take a deep breath and chill out a bit mate, hating with a passion only destroy your insides, look for the good stuff. The online world is awful, true, but here in England today it's very cold, the sun is shining, mist floats around the trees and just been for a walk in the Quantock hills with friends. Human life is wonderful.
So was he like the Father of all this garbage called modern Art, which include a canvas with a banana attach to it with a masking tape or those blank canvas with a tiny Dot in the center???? Andy Warhol will roll in his grave to see these modern art of this era.
I think Andy would loved the anarchy of it all. Remember, he managed to sell Soup Can labels for thousands of pounds when you could have gone to the supermarket and bought the real thing for less than a pound. Genius. Just like the artist who stuck a banana on a wall, in a gallery in Los Angeles I believe, and he's got you and many others talking about it. Genius
In some ways yes, but he brilliantly exploited the self-centred consumer society he found in America. One example, particularly in the way he got gullible, more money than sense individuals to buy in an art gallery, Brillo Boxes for hundreds of dollars, when they could have bought the same box for a pittance in a supermarket.
I have watched about 15 of your videos over the past week, you are a fantastic teacher. Thank you my friend!
