Faces of Warhol :-)


So I went with my friend Sally to see the Andy Warhol Exhibition at the new Gallery of Modern Art today...
It was quite incredible to see such familiar images... images that I know from magazines, t-shirts, posters etc.... and to realise that I was looking at the originals - the very canvases that Mr W created them on... and looking at his films, at the images of famous and ordinary people... looking into the camera, kissing... did those people know that 30 years later I would be looking into their eyes on the screen, scrutinising them, making my own interpretations about their thoughts and feelings....laughing at the way they slobber when they kiss...
I love art :-)
