"HOW DOES ANDY WARHOL FIT INTO THIS"
BESIDES the fact he is celebrated POLISH…
SO ANDY WHAT DID HE DO
2 massive direcitons for art after WWI
reflective of the chaos and destruction but not suicidal
marc bloc :(
reflective of chaos and showing it in all its pain
existentialism = we have today and no guarantee of tomorrow AND WE MAKE DAILY choices based on principal WE WILL DIE BEFORE midnight
or when trump is reelcted lol
no.
the hallmark of '20th c fine art, western school'
is
isolation. and that we are each in fact
truly alone.
which is true.
true ENOUGH of a theme to take off and flood the esthetic.
Christians might not be receptive to the message. If they are, well then…..
following me?
(are these artists fundamentally marxist? wow i need moar collage)
SO
weird but
WW1 was THE EVENT of EVERYTHING
Just this: the past was annihilated.
EVERY THING THAT WAS ONCE VALUABLE WAS NOW QUESTIONED AS POSSIBLE SHIT.
like when Enola Gay ended the japanese myth that Emperor Daddy actually might be a god, therefore WILL PROTECT US FROM HBOMB
Exploring the after effects of devastation is EXTREMELY Important for us all to do.

ff TO warhol
post ww2 america is rich and optimistic
we 'won' the war (dont tell that to a russian)
WHAT IS ANDY REFLECTING ON with his empty prints of CAMPBELL SOUP CANS???
THAT is about consumerism.
That anything an
artist
read propagandist….
calls "art" is capital A "Art"
So he called bullshit on the traditional theme of art (pretty pics had little place in the 60s)
and slammed the emptiness of american consumerism
AFTER THAT, he became the RED CARPET WHORE OF ALL TIME, NYC VERSION.
AND SUCKED THE CELEBS with portratis
one afrterr the other.
HE WAS A TROLL.
They paid money for fine art that he was ripping off the printing press
no
his assts were doing that ripping and andy did the rest.
STABBED. film. tie in? idk. its a yawner.
I enjoy him for this 1 intellectual moment and discard the rest.
LIVE THE ERA
SAW THE SHOW
PASSED ON THE LUCITE KEY CHAIN
