Andy Warhol

"Buying," say Andy Warhol, "is more American than thinking and I'm as American as they come." For more than twenty years Warhol has been watching what gets bought in America, from objects (Campbell's Soup) to ideas (Electric Chair) to glamorous celebrities (Mick Jagger). He watches and then transforms what he sees into incisive images that sum up contemporary society with uncanny accuracy.
