Quote

I think they should have movies in restaurants. I can't believe that so many people get together just to sit there. It's so abstract... isn't it abstract? What are these people sitting here watching?

I think an artist is anybody who does something well, like if you cook well.
Andy Warhol

Dying is the most embarrassing thing that can ever happen to you, because someone's got to take care of all your details.
Andy Warhol
Image
When I look at things, I always see the space they occupy. I always want the space to reappear, to make a comeback, because it's lost space when there's something in it.
Andy Warhol

We live in an age when the traditional great subjects - the human form, the landscape, even newer traditions such as abstract expressionism - are daily devalued by commercial art.
Andy Warhol
Image
I'm starting to think that the men are the ones who should wear the big jewelry because they can defend it better when it's robbed. They should wear the big diamonds. You can show how much of a man you are, because the bigger the diamond, the stronger you have to be to defend it.

Exposure and attention make a work famous - the more you talk about it, the more attention it gets, the more validity it achieves.
Andy Warhol
Image

Andy Warhol

Empty space is never-wasted space. Wasted space is any space that has art in it.
Andy Warhol

Fashion is more art than art is
Andy Warhol

The pop artists did images that anybody walking down Broadway could recognize in a split second — comics, picnic tables, men’s trousers, celebrities, shower curtains, refrigerators, Coke bottles. All the great modern things that the Abstract Expressionists tried not to notice at all.
Andy Warhol
Image
Being born is like being kidnapped. And then sold into slavery. People are working every minute. The machinery is always going. Even when you sleep.
Andy Warhol

The idea of waiting for something makes it more exciting

I think pot should be legal. I don’t smoke it, but I like the smell of it.
Andy Warhol

If you're not trying to be real, you don't have to get it right. That's art.
Andy Warhol
Image
When I think about what sort of person I would most like to have on a retainer, I think it would be a boss. A boss who could tell me what to do, because that makes everything easy when you're working.
Andy Warhol
Image
If there's ever a problem, I film it and it's no longer a problem. It's a film.

I wish I hadn't made so many images.
