  • Andy Warhol: When Junkies Ruled the World
    Nebula 2.2 , June 2005 Andy Warhol: When Junkies Ruled the World. By Michael Angelo Tata So when the doorbell rang the night before, it was Liza in a hat pulled down so nobody would recognize her, and she said to Halston, “Give me every drug you’ve got.” So he gave her a bottle of coke, a few sticks of marijuana, a Valium, four Quaaludes, and they were all wrapped in a tiny box, and then a little figure in a white hat came up on the stoop and kissed Halston, and it was Marty Scorsese, he’d been hiding around the corner, and then he and Liza went off to have their affair on all the drugs ( Diaries , Tuesday, January 3, 1978). Privileged Intake Of all the creatures who populate and punctuate Warhol’s worlds—drag queens, hustlers, movie stars, First Wives—the drug user and abuser retains a particular access to glamour. Existing along a continuum ranging from the occasional substance dilettante to the hard-core, raging junkie, the consumer of drugs preoccupies Warhol throughout the 60s, 70s and 80s. Their actions and habits fascinate him, his screens become the sacred place where their rituals are projected and packaged. While individual substance abusers fade from the limelight, as in the disappearance of Ondine shortly after the commercial success of The Chelsea Girls , the loss of status suffered by Brigid Polk in the 70s and 80s, or the fatal overdose of exemplary drug fiend Edie Sedgwick, the actual glamour of drugs remains, never giving up its allure. 1 Drugs survive the druggie, who exists merely as a vector for the 1 While Brigid Berlin continues to exert a crucial influence on Warhol’s work in the 70s and 80s—for example, The Philosophy of Andy Warhol , as detailed by Bob Colacello in the chapter “Paris (and Philosophy )”—her street cred.

  • Room 10 Consuming Pop
    Room 10 Consuming Pop 101 The relationship between art and consumer society is a thread that runs throughout pop art, and this final room deals directly with the lure and act of consumption. The risk that art itself might become a consumable product is mooted in some works here, but others proclaim the power of art to subvert and oppose the operations of global capitalism. Thomas Bayrle’s The Laughing Cow wallpaper makes the cheese company icon omnipresent and inescapable, while Boris Bućan’s series of brand logos transformed into ‘art’ reflect Yugoslavia’s transition to consumerist culture. Advertising always shows consumption as pleasurable. Many works here expose the coercion that backs it up, from the bars on the screen in Sanja Iveković’s video Sweet Violence , to the aggressively proffered American products in Keiichi Tanaami’s Commercial War animation. 102 Wall labels Clockwise from right of wall text Thomas Bayrle 1937 Born and works Germany The Laughing Cow (Blue) Wallpaper La Vache qui rit (blau) Tapete 1967/2015 Wallpaper, silkscreen on paper Courtesy the artist, Air de Paris and Groupe Bel, Paris X50880 32 103 Komar and Melamid Vitaly Komar 1943 Alexander Melamid 1945 Born Russia (former USSR), work USA Post Art No 1 (Warhol) Post Art No 2 (Lichtenstein) Post Art No 3 (Indiana) 1973 Oil paint on canvas Russian artists Komar and Melamid reappropriated canonical American works, copying them from reproductions in Lucy Lippard’s seminal book Pop Art (1966).
