Artist/Interventionist "Andy Warhol"

For this blog assignment I chose the artist/interventionist Andy Warhol.

Andy Warhol is known for "Pop Art", avant-garde film, and painting with the intent of creating rare and new work that no one has ever attempted or seen before.

3 Facts

1). Warhol made over 300 Underground Films, the first of which was called "Sleep" and simply showed a man asleep for 6 hours.

2). In 1968 Valerie Solanis shot him in the chest, she was an ex-employee at "The Factory". Although escaping with his life, Warhol had to wear a bandage for the rest of his life.
