Andy Warhol
Image
I'm for mechanical art. When I took up silk screening, it was to more fully exploit the preconceived image through the commercial techniques of multiple reproduction.
Andy Warhol
Image
My ideal city would be one long main street with no cross streets or side streets to jam up traffic. Just a long one-way street.
