“... knew in the art and photography worlds was there, including Emile de Antonio, Henry Geldzahler, Andy Warhol, Robert Frank, Walker Evans, Tom Hess, Lisette Model, Richard Avedon, Marvin Israel, and the pop art collectors Robert and Ethel Scull.’ Bosworth’s concentration on the sex-and-society aspect of her subject’s life means that she rarely ...”

“... he attempted to solve by aestheticising his boxes with reflective surfaces and a sheen of colour. Andy Warhol, equally module-obsessed, took a rather different road, using ready-made Brillo boxes as his white cubes, although the Tate, strangely, exhibits just one, curiously displayed in a closet, rather than an ensemble which could be contrasted ...”

“... she’d learned about in art school in LA – the New York of Judson Church and Yvonne Rainer, of Andy Warhol and Patti Smith and Lou Reed. It was disappearing as she arrived, as cities do. She wasn’t sure whether she should be a dancer or artist or filmmaker or writer or musician; what mattered was less what kind of artist than to be one, there. Sid ...”

“... Is the substitutional logic of icons truly akin to the serial logic of, say, the silkscreens of Andy Warhol? Is the ‘conglomerate’ aspect of an altarpiece really like the ‘open’ aspect of, say, an assemblage by Kurt Schwitters? In my view the differences often overtake the similarities, but part of the point here is to irk diehard modernists ...”

“... as an unshaven thug, while Walt Kelly cast him as a villainous polecat in the comic strip Pogo; Andy Warhol produced a silk-screened Nixon with skin as biliously green as the Wicked Witch of the West and, in a riotous series of drawings, Philip Guston transformed the president’s ski nose and heavy jowls into a glumly expressive set of male ...”

“... in the Ingres drawings that first interested him; refers it forward to the 1960s line sketches of Andy Warhol; refers it back to Holbein’s English Court drawings of the 1520s and 1530s; refers yet further back to the one preparatory silverpoint known to come from van Eyck’s hand; and forces you to see that the same thing is happening across five ...”

“... accompanied Duchamp to his first retrospective in Pasadena, California, where Hamilton met Andy Warhol and Claes Oldenburg (who became a good friend); in 1966 he collaborated on another Duchamp survey, at the Tate, the centrepiece of which was his own painstaking reconstruction of The Large Glass (the fragile original couldn’t travel from the ...”

“... and the community.’ New York had a (pre-digital, pre-Aids) lineage that included La Monte Young, Andy Warhol, Patti Smith and a lot of loft-based jazz. A fertile and fluid exchange between discrete communities: high, low, queer, druggy, artsy, radical, hedonist. There’s a lovely moment, recorded in Travels over Feeling, where Gordon and Russell go to ...”

“... artists exhibited by Fraser included the following. Americans: Rauschenberg, Twombly, Oldenburg, Warhol, Dine, Chamberlain, Ruscha, Lindner and Matta. Europeans: Magritte, Dubuffet, Michaux, Bellmer, Klapheck. Britons: Bacon, Hamilton, Paolozzi, Blake, Harold Cohen, Riley, Caulfield, Gilbert and George. Kasmin’s Americans included ...”

“... its Exploding Plastic Inevitable with Nico on vocals, Gerard Malanga on whips and leathers, Andy Warhol doing lights. Friends of friends drew her into a hippie band, Wind in the Willows, for which she played ‘finger cymbals, tamboura and tambourine’ but was mostly ‘a decorative asset’. She quit, and moved in with the drummer, who got her ...”

“... overlooked milestone in the history of Modernism’. The publishers, for good measure, throw in Andy Warhol. To begin at the beginning: they are ‘nouvelles en trois lignes’. The news in three lines, laid out – as a page of Le Matin reproduced here shows – under the sub-heads of Parisian Suburbs, Départements (i.e. provincial stories) and ...”

“... put them down. Valerie Solanos wrote a manifesto that wants to be a feminist tract before shooting Andy Warhol. But not even Warhol, who understood something essential about fame, could have guessed that, one day, such would-be killers, or putative cleaners-up of our corrupt and oppressive world, would carry the ...”

“... pure vacuity, a signature appearance, massive energy, flair and confidence made her a godsend to Andy Warhol and his friends. Her witticisms, such as they were (the Warhol magazine Interview called them ‘crypticisms’), were widely reported. ‘Communism is OK, if you’ve got a car and driver.’ Or: ‘The Civil ...”

“... the past two decades and specifically on the New Journalism that reported the trips of people like Andy Warhol and the Merry Pranksters by letting them invade the prose rather than drawing back to explain or judge. This was a culture of heightened, even deranged perception, of pushing well beyond the limits usually deemed sane or civilised, with the help ...”

“... through dismay to a stoic and compassionate acceptance after his vision of the angel. Andy Warhol recognised the power of that form of the gaze in the five hundred or so Screen Tests he made between 1964 and 1966: ‘I only wanted to find great people and let them be themselves and talk about what they usually talked about and I’d film them ...”
