Paul McDermott reviews 'Warhol' by Blake Gopnik - a podcast by The ABR Podcast

Andy Warhol, who died in 1987, remains one of the most influential artists of the twentieth century. His works command stratospheric prices, yet many regard him as a huckster, vacuous and inflated. He perfected a kind of celebrity: the denizen of Studio 54, the consort of Lee Radziwill and all, and fame became for Warhol a kind of obsession. 

In today's episode, Paul McDermott – comedian, writer, and occasional painter – examines this contradictory artist in a new biography by Blake Gopnik.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
