[idavidgraficks]

Most all those "Warhol Paintings" were screen prints.

I really love Andy Warhol's portraits, including the commissioned "society" portraits, not so keen on the electric chairs, disasters, etc. I used to think he painted Campbell's Soup tins because he'd designed the labels. When I found out he hadn't (when I was about 16) I went "uh?!?"

A prominent art critic described Warhol as "one of the stupidest people I ever met in my life." That's not entirely true. He was in reality a brilliant con artist.

[ediesedgwick]

I don't like his art, but I'd love to have his business acumen and self-promotion skills. I wouldn't mind being as famous as he was.

[tango-bravo]

WHAT MAKES AMERICA UNCULTURAL?

By Andrew Praiseword

What constitutes "Culture" in its sense as "High Culture -- creating Intellectual World of most Civilized People", let say, Opera and Art galleries goers, yet, had read if not all -- then, though, half-of-all books, world? Mostly it is literature, music, and fine arts. Western literature now is pulp fiction.

America became an object of European interest in 1492, when in Europe they had, already, passed Ancient Greece and Rome, Dark Medieval -- time, when they, in some countries, were not allowed,  even, to make civil portraits, and were restoring their, based on Ancient time, admiration of life in the Renaissance.

Ancient Greece left tremendous "archive" of culture, and one the senses of Renaissance is renewal of the interest to Greek and Roman literature and Art (no music reached that far). Then, when America was developing prairies -- Europe had already accumulated 2/3 of its contemporary culture. American immigrants in majority were peasants -- came for free land. Then, this lesser understanding of culture, to large extent, continues until now.

They were too far from Ancient tales -- they, adopted them to kids and substituted European tales with created heroes of comics. They built Hollywood -- and it was a great contribution, until commercial interest brought it to a limited set of topics collecting billions world-wide but which lost sense as Art of cinematography.

Surprisingly, America created great achievements in Jazz, Blues, and Rock-&-Roll. American contribution with R&R I consider comparable with the French Impressionism. But since Hard Rock -- American contemporary music often yield to European one. Rap, repeating simple riffs -- and letting participation of extortionists and foreign, other cultures contributors in the "big machines" -- destroyed "Art" in pop music for the sake of commercial success and shares of the participation in the "machines".

Built on its alternative culture, comics, gangster and horror movies, rap, not, even, understanding what, in fact, constitutes real Fine Art -- Americas left peripheral, and sometimes, like with Beyonce's last tour (2023) -- ridiculous for a deep European.
