Andy Warhol was an American artist and a
central figure in the movement known as
pop art he coined the phrase but he
certainly had more than 15 minutes of
fame hi I’m Christina and watchmojo.com
and today we’re going to learn about how
music and dance had an influence on Andy
Warhol’s work werd Warhol live music and
dance in Andy Warhol’s work can you tell
us about how music and dance affected
him and affected the art that he created
music was always very important for
Warhol a from his childhood when he
would go to see Hollywood musicals he
was in love with Shirley Temple when he
was a little boy and that carried
through like right until the end of his
life when Debbie Harry was his greatest
friend
me
for a short time Andy Warhol was the
manager of the velvet underground can
you tell us a little bit about how that
affected his life they were Punk before
there was punk and they were so grating
on people like no one really knew what
to do with them but Warhol loved it
and then he also enjoyed studio 54 in
the disco scene how do you reconcile all
these different tastes in music it has
not so much to do with the music as it
was the scene you know because the
velvet underground were part of the
exploding plastic inevitable and when
you think about what that was like with
a light show and it basically a big
party and a lot of just like total
reckless abandon studio 54 was the same
thing it was only the soundtrack changed
his sixth what are some of the
highlights of this exhibit you start
with Elvis paintings and there’s a
Maryland painting and there’s work that
he did in the 1950s about music dance
diagram painting we have lots of great
paintings that are on loan from Europe
LP covers all throughout his
professional career and the room where
we are right now this sort of like
evocation of the silver factory I mean
it goes on and on thank you so much for
reintroducing Andy Warhol to possibly a
new public that doesn’t know so much
about him oh that’s great yeah it’s been
my pleasure
