Give ‘Em Props!.... Andy Warhol by Visual Narcotics:20mg

“Is there ONE painting, sticker,
stencil, sculpture, or piece of architecture that truly inspires you in your
daily work?”


“This was a very difficult question. There
is so much art out there that inspires me to narrow it down to one piece seemed
impossible. I decided to start by narrowing it down to an artist. So after a
lot of thought and even though I tried to not be cliche. I had to pick Warhol,
because I feel that he helped to expand the spectrum of what is considered art
more than any other artist from the past century. He opened a door for many
artist to use materials and imagery that had long been consider outside or
unworthy of so-called “high art’s” attention. And now because of this many
different forms of art, and in particular street art, is appreciated and gets
the attention it deserves. That’s why I want to give Andy Warhol props… As far
as one piece of Warhol’s that stands out, I just couldn’t pick one. So I decided
to include my favorite self portrait of his. Thanks again, Andy.”... href="http://www.20mg.com">Visual Narcotics:20mg
