casmir dane’s Reviews > Warhol > Status Update

“the subjects of warhol’s later works changed incessantly, and it is difficult to see the criteria by which they were selected. This hectic production seemed to have been determined by a subliminal fear that time was running short. Warhol ate up the whole world like a greedy man afraid of life as a result of his hidden fear of death. Everything was beautiful, everything became a picture.”

robert rosenblum called warhol a court painter of the seventies and like that’s sooo true

death becomes another spectacle or “product” for the audience.

the concept of warhol’s works revealing to archaeologists of the future the daily lives of people at the end of the 20th century, the standard of production and perseveration of consumer goods as well as our collective eating and drinking habits influencing conclusions on human behavior as a whole..absolutely fascinating
