Andy Warhol - The Complete Picture
Andy Warhol - The Complete Picture
Campbell’s soup cans, drug addicts-turned-celebrities and a Day-Glo Marilyn Monroe: these are some of the groundbreaking images from Andy Warhol’s artistic vision.
This program offers the definitive look at the life and creative world of a revolutionary who influenced the 20th century in everything from painting to film to music. Capturing the essence of Warhol’s strobe-lit, amphetamine- fueled 60s “scene” are rare audiotapes and films from the Warhol Foundation Archives and recollections of friends and colleagues like Debbie Harry and Dennis Hopper.
Enter Warhol’s fabulous inner circle, where both high and lowbrow converge beneath the banner of celebrity and everyone gets to be famous for fifteen minutes.

Customer Review: Interesting and inspiring!
I bought this after reading a biography on Andy Warhol,
I found it very interesting to see the people I just read
about in video and fill in some details that the book might
not have covered, this is a really entertaining film, full of
footage of Andy at the Factory, making films and being
“Andy Warhol” It also turned me on to the Dandy Warhols
music for which I am very grateful!
There is alot of good footage of Andys art and his home and
posessions and even interviews with family members and a
look at the early life of a struggling immagrant family
and the gifted artist they raised who changed the world of art
and influenced the way products and personality’s are marketed!

Avant Garde and Experimental Films Vol. I 1. UN CHIEN ANDULOU (1928-FRANCE)(An Andalusian Dog) by Luis Bu?uel and SALVADOR DALI. Perhaps the most famous avant garde film of all; the slit eyeball, the ants emerging from the human palm, the severed hand in the street. A series of visual shocks symbolizing nothing. Successful attempt at pure surrealism. With synchronized music score selected by Luis Bu?ue 2.REGEN (RAIN) by JORIS IVENS and MANNUS FRANKEN. (1929-Holland). A lyrical impression of a shower of rain in Amsterdam. Beautifully photographed.3.UBERFALL by ERNO METZNER (c. 1929-Germany). A grim account of a street robbery presenting sordid facts in an objective light. Once banned as “brutalizing and demoralizing” Silent film with music score, correct projection speed.4.THE HEARTS OF AGE (1934-USA). Directed by and starring ORSON WELLES. No plot, but the young Welles (age 19) is easily spotted as a nascent genius. The first footage ever shot by Welles (and way, way before Citizen Kane). Silent film with music score, correct projection speed.5.BALLET MECANIQUE (1924-France) by FERNAND LEGER. A delightful abstract film with a minimum of geometrical forms and a maximum of photographic images. Supposedly shows Freudian symbolism but regardless, a delight to behold visually. Your eye will shake your hand. Silent film with music score, correct projection speed.74 minutes total.
Customer Review: Crazy Visuals, Disturbing Nightmares
Who would have guessed that a Surrealist painter could also become a breakthrough to the world of video art? As a whole, this video is worth the money, as it is a RARE FIND in rental stores. Checkit out. You’ll never see Dali the same way again.
