Warhol

As a senior in High School I became more aware of a larger body of work that Warhol produced, from the early commercial work as well as the films. It’s safe to say there was an influence there and directed me towards a career in the graphic arts.

Recently I watched “The Warhol Diaries” on Netflix and thoroughly enjoyed viewing the progression of his career a little more in-depth with some insight from his personal point-of-view.

I want to note Warhol did publish many of his screenprints on his own, but also worked with a number of printmakers during his career. Working with Alexander Heinrici from 1974-1976 and then with Rupert Jasen Smith from 1977 until Warhol’s death in 1987.

This is an interesting video from Tate Britain following one artists method to reproduce Warhol’s work.
