#Quote
1Sex is more exciting on the screen and between the pages than between the sheets.
2Don't read your reviews; weigh them.
3If it doesn't make sense it's art.
4I like the taste of the last chocolate in the box.
5Living in New York City gives people real incentives to want things that nobody else wants.
6(his advice about audiences, to The Velvet Underground) Always leave them wanting less.
7(revising his earlier quote, during the Disco era) In fifteen minutes, everyone will be famous.
8Our movies may have looked like home movies, but then our home wasn't like anybody else's.
9Sex is the biggest nothing of all time.
10My idea of a good picture is one that's in focus and of a famous person.
11Of course what I think is boring must not be the same as what other people think is, since I could never stand to watch all the most popular action shows on TV, because they're essentially the same plots and the same shots and the same cuts over and over again. Apparently, most people love watching the same basic thing, as long as the details are different. But I'm just the opposite: if I'm going to sit and watch the same thing I saw the night before, I don't want it to be essentially the same - I want it to be exactly the same. Because the more you look at the same exact thing, the more the meaning goes away, and the better and emptier you feel.
12Business art is the step that comes after art. I started as a commercial artist, and I want to finish as a business artist. After I did the thing called "art" or whatever it's called, I went into business art. I wanted to be an Art Businessman or a Business Artist. Being good in business in the most fascinating kind of art.
13I'd prefer to remain a mystery. I never like to give my background and, anyway, I make it all up different every time I'm asked. It's not just that it's part of my image not to tell everything, it's just that I forget what I said the day before, and I have to make it all up over again.
14Success is when the checks don't bounce.
15I am a deeply superficial person.
16In the future everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes.
17I would rather watch somebody buy their underwear than read a book they wrote.
#Fact
1Gore Vidal once described Andy Warhol as "The only genius I've ever known with an IQ of 60".
2Was good friends with Charles Lisanby.
3His brother owned a junkyard in upstate New York. Periodically his brother would bring him odd scraps of junk, which Warhol would use in his art.
4His nephew, James Warhola, wrote and illustrated a children's book titled "Uncle Andy's." It is about a little boy who visits his famous uncle in New York City.
5He bequeathed his wig to singer David Bowie, who later wore it to portray Warhol in Basquiat (1996). Bowie had written the song "Andy Warhol" in tribute to him, which featured on his 1971 album "Hunky Dory".
6Biography in: "The Scribner Encyclopedia of American Lives". Volume Two, 1986-1990, pages 873-876. New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1999.
7An astute businessman in the art world, he left an estate worth $500 million when he died.
8Godfather of Bijou Phillips.
9Was among the guests at Madonna's and Sean Penn's wedding.
10Influenced the movement of 'The New Russian Classicism'. Visited St. Petersburg, Russia and presented his 'tomato cans' to Timur Novikov and Sergei Bugayev.
11Warhol's "A: A Novel," published in 1968, is based on 24 hours of tape recordings (24 one-hour tapes) of Ondine speaking. His tape-recorded musings were transcribed and typed up and serve as the basis of the novel, which was disingenuously presented as one day in the life of Ondine. The book is one of the premier artifacts of the Pop art movement/Pop culture. Warhol followed Ondine around New York City with a tape recorder, recording their conversations. Ondine was addicted to amphetamines and was prone to wild verbal flights that covered many subjects. To type up the tapes, Warhol hired teenage girls, some of whom were barely literate and made many errors. Warhol "edited" the resulting manuscript during a series of concerts given by The Velvet Underground (Lou Reed is one of the "characters" in the novel), sitting in the rear of the theater in the dark, reading proof sheets with a flashlight. Like James Joyce when confronted with transcription errors made by the French printers/compositors of the first edition of "Ulysses" (1922), Warhol loved the mistakes and decided to keep them in. He thought the mistakes improved the book as it made it worse, more of a Pop manifesto, and insisted that all the errata be left in the final draft, which he fancied as a Pop "Finnegans Wake." In his later book/memoir "Popism," Warhol explained, "I wanted to do a 'bad book' just the way I'd done 'bad movies' and 'bad art,' because when you do something exactly wrong, you always turn up something." Warhol, the author, refused to filter out the "background noise" or "static," thus preventing the reader from following a coherent narrative thread. The book intentionally is boring, as are many of Warhol's films. Of his films Warhold said that talking about them was more interesting than actually viewing them, and this likely was his intent with "A: A Novel" -- to create an artifact that made people talk about it -- and think.
12Son of immigrants from the town Miková, located in today's northeastern Slovakia. His original name was "Warhola".
13His father, who traveled much on business trips, died when Warhol was 13.
14Avoided the subject of death, except in his paintings (the Disaster series). He did not attend the funerals of his superstars nor did he attend his mother's funeral when she died in November 1972. After she passed away he continued to give the impression that she was still alive to people who would ask about her. Warhol did not mention his mother's death to any of his close friends. As late as 1976, when friends asked about his mother, Andy said, 'Oh, she's great. But she doesn't get out of bed much."
15Was a frequent guest at the infamous "Studio 54"
16When guesting on The Love Boat (1977), he was nervous about the experience and turned to his castmate (and muse for the particular episode) Marion Ross, who calmed him down and offered some advice on how to act.
17Is credited with coining the term "superstar."
18Produced The Velvet Underground's first album. He essentially lent his name to their work and observed them in the recording studio, while Lou Reed and later Tom Wilson (who had worked earlier with Bob Dylan) mostly called the shots. The cover of the band's first album (with Nico) was Warhol's design: a banana with a peel that was actually a peelable sticker.
19Pictured on a USA 37¢ commemorative postage stamp issued 9 August 2002.
20In 1990, Lou Reed and John Cale made a CD album called "Songs for Drella" as a tribute to Warhol with 15 songs about Warhol's life.
21Interred at St. John the Baptist Catholic Cemetery, Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, USA.
221984: He and Don Monroe directed music video "Hello Again" for The Cars. He also appeared in it, playing The Bartender.
