That's right I want to know how you feel about the infamous Andy Warhol. I've been hearing a lot about him seeing as the new movie 'Factory Girl' is coming out soon and I have realized that I am not as big a fan as most. I really like the whole pop art scene and he is obviously a very creative man but I never did find his art truly inspiring or even that original. So, share with me your opinions. Criticize, worship, and do whatever you feel is fit. Just tell me. How do you feel about this avant-garde filmmaker, actor, and artist?

I kind of agree. He's made a huge impact and influence on art but what I think is that most people like him for his reputation more than his works, in my opinion.

Agreed. I mean...seriously, ask anyone who claims to love Andy Warhol to name a dozen of his projects and the majority will have no clue how to answer. I don't hate him...I just...don't think he's that great?

Eh, he's okay. Some of his work is really nice. But then some of it is really strange.
I believe he designed the lable for Cambell's soup can. |

As I have said before I'm not impressed with him. He didn't hand paint anything, he screen printed it. That doesn't take a lot of skill.

It's all a matter of opinion. Andy Warhol's ok, but I'm not so much into his art.
