Andy Warhol's lost Amiga art found

August 6 is Andy Warhol's birthday, so let's look back at his pioneering digital art

The Silicon Underground
W 2014 Fundacja Andyego Warhola, która prowadzi muzeum Pittsburgu, sprzedała 5 odzyskanych prac artysty za 3,38 miliony dolarów. Pieniądze zasiliły kasę fundacji, która wspiera sztukę współczesną grantami dla artystów i instytucji. Aby zachować oryginalność plików, amigowe obrazy zamieniono w pliki NFT (ang. non-fungible token) niewymienialne tokeny, oparte na architekturze blockchain.

The legacy of Pasolini and Warhol in modern LLMs: they still shake us with a kiss to a rubber ducky. I was looking for a carefree meme, I found the Elsewhere. 🛢️🦆

This #Warhol label hit something for me: 'You don't hear about "poor but honest" anymore. It's like when you see somebody's poor you think, "They're poor because they couldn't make it in the marketplace," and we put a price tag on intelligence and talent, which really shouldn't have any."

Finally isolated the alexical notion that had been flittering round the back of my mind for a few days, without my spotting it.

#Epstein, in the videos of police interviews and such that I've glimpsed, reminded me strongly of someone I couldn't place. It's the almost playful, ironically detached manner in the bit about "are you the devil himself?" When he replies something like "no, but I have a very good mirror".

Who?
Andy #Warhol.

(Am am not in a million years suggesting Warhol was a sex-trafficker or paedophile or such. I'm just talking about the surface persona.)

Blondie's Debbie Harry on Her Friendship with Andy Warhol

""25 Cats Name Sam and One Blue Pussy" by Andy Warhol (1928–87) is an artistic departure from the pop-art style that made him famous. Completed in the early 1950s, it is a book of brightly-colored, sentimental sketches representing eighteen of the twenty-five pet cats that eventually resided with Warhol in his apartment on New York’s Upper East Side. His first feline was a Siamese kitten named Hester, given to him by actress Gloria Swanson (1899–1983). Feeling that Hester was becoming lonely, Warhol brought home another cat and named him Sam. The cats had numerous litters over the next few years, and Warhol named each kitten after their father, Sam. "25 Cats Name Sam and One Blue Pussy" was released in a limited edition initially intended for friends and clients. A very special thank you to Sandy Lerner for making this exhibition possible. See "Caticons: The Cat in Art" is on display, pre-security, in the International Terminal. http://bit.ly/Caticons" This was posted to our Instagram account on October 27, 2018 – https://millsfield.sfomuseum.org/instagram/1729357485/
