Andy Warhol and Archie

$799.00

Oil on wood slice, 11” x 14” in diameter.

I remember the New York City subway was covered with graffiti. The streets were filled with garbage and were dangerous. Apartments were dirt cheap. It was heaven for young artists. I saw Keith Haring doing his thing in the subway stations. Richard Hambleton’s shadow man in the East Village, scared the crap out of me. Literally, art was everywhere. Somehow, Andy Warhol was in the middle of it. We can not talk about modern art without Andy Warhol. He merged painting and films, music, and celebrities all in one. I still see his influences everywhere. The Voluptuous Horror of Karen Black is no exception. He forever changed the art world for the better or worse. My favorite American artist and New Yorker, Andy Warhol!
