Andy Warhol ,While being a wonderful artist
mattinsac6730 December 2005
On Andy: While being a progressive and innovative and excellent artist, was also a voyeuristic exploitive, man,who exploited others to his own gain and did it well. An excellent example was Edie Sedgwick. A fragile but beautiful socialite who should have gone straight to Vogue and stayed there, took a wrong turn and met ANdy Warhol, who made her The "Girl of 1965". SHe starred in his amateurish films for about 2 years and went downhil from there due to her addiction to speed as were others at "The Factory" when they had a disagreement about her being paid for her movies (which he made a fine living off of) she left the factory. One comment he actually made was "I wish we could make a movie with Edie committing suicide" He also had another "superstar"thrown down the stairs (ANdrea Feldman) who later took a fatal jump out the window. He was a vapid unfeeling man with I'm sure his own personal demons. Is it any wonder someone shot him? His works are very interesting but that's an artist for you.
