Andy Warhol, Dolly Parton 1985. Polacolor ER, 3 æ x 2 7/8 inches (image). Collection Friends of the Neuberger Museum of Art. Purchase College, State University of New York. Gift from The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc
I recently went to The Neuberger Museum of Art and saw Andy Warhol's SNAPSHOTS exhibition, its a unique and personal look at how he created his works of art and the thought process that went behind the photographs taken between the 1970's through the early 1980's the exhibition also shows the viewer how he lived his life everyday in the public eye. If you are interested in Andy Warhol's works of art/life story a good movie to rent is FACTORY GIRL, although it's a biographical story based on the life of socialite and the 1960s underground film star Edie Sedgwick, the movie itself shows how Edie began working with Andy on many personal projects and forming a working relationship. I think the overall message in the movie is he only associated himself with the rich and famous which these were the kind of people who had the ability to move your career forward and were successful themselves.
