Art History and Artists Andy Warhol Biography >> Art History Occupation: Artist, Painter, Sculptor Born: August 6, 1928 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Died: February 22, 1987 in New York City, New York Famous works: Campbell's Soup Cans, Moonwalk, Marilyn Monroe, Che, Eight Elvises Style/Period: Pop Art, Modern Art Biography: Where did Andy Warhol grow up? Andy grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania the son of a construction worker. His birth name was Andrew Warhola. When he was 8 years old he caught a liver disease that caused his limbs to sometimes spasm uncontrollably. While recovering his mother, an embroiderer and artist, taught him to draw. He was a quiet and shy child, but loved drawing, photography, and movies. When Andy was fourteen, his father died from liver disease. His father considered Andy the brightest of his children and had saved money for Andy to go to college. When he graduated from high school, he went to Carnegie Mellon University to study art. New York City After graduating from college, Andy moved to New York in 1959 to make his name as an artist. Andy became a very successful commercial artist. On one of his first jobs his name in the credits was misspelled "Warhol" instead of "Warhola". Andy liked the name and decided to keep it. Over the next ten years Andy did quite well working as a commercial artist. He won prizes for his work and was known for his unique style. However, Andy wanted to do more with his art. He wanted to do something new and 1 of 6 3/1/16, 12:20 PM Biography: Andy Warhol Art for Kids http://www.ducksters.com/biography/artists/andy_warhol.php different. Pop Art In 1961 Andy came up with the concept of using mass-produced commercial goods in his art. He called it Pop Art. He would use commercial images and reproduce them over and over. One early example of this was a series on Campbell's Soup cans. In one painting he had two hundred Campbell's soup cans repeated over and over. Andy often used silkscreen and lithography to create his pictures. Famous People Andy also used pictures of famous people. He would repeat the same portrait over and over, but use different colors and effects in each picture. Some of the celebrities he had as subjects include Marilyn Monroe, Che Guevara, Mao Zedong, and Elizabeth Taylor. Fame Andy soon became a very famous celebrity himself. He opened a new studio called "The Factory". He not only worked on his art there, but had large parties with wealthy and famous people. It became one of the cool places to be in New York City. Andy was also selling a lot of his art. Legacy Andy was a different kind of artist. While many artists focused entirely on their art with no interest in personal fame or fortune, Andy wanted to be rich and famous. Some artists accused him of making art in order to make money. However, many of the images he created have become iconic in American culture. His paintings have grown in value as well. One of his portraits called Eight Elvises sold for $100 million in 2008. Despite having made a lot of money off of his art, Andy can also be credited with bringing art to the masses. He would mass produce prints of his art so it was affordable to everyone. Interesting Facts about Andy Warhol His birth date was never recorded at a hospital. Andy liked to change his birthday and make up stories about his youth when doing interviews with the press. He once said that "good business is the best art." He was also interested in film and music. He produced around 60 films and supported a band called the Velvet Underground. One of his movies was a 6 hour film of his friend sleeping called Sleep. Andy was shot three times in the chest by feminist Valerie Solanis and nearly died on June 3, 1968. He died in the hospital after surgery on his gall bladder. His parents were immigrants from Slovakia. See some of Andy Warhol's art here.

Pop art, the movement Warhol is typically associated with, !ourished in the 60s. It was also during that decade that Warhol’s career peaked. From 1964 till 1968 his studio, known as the Silver Factory, became not just a hothouse of artistic activity, but also the embodiment of the zeitgeist: the “sex, drugs and rock’n’roll” culture of the period with its penchant for experimentation and excess, the revolution in morals and sexuality (Korichi 182–183, 206–208). "e seventh decade of the twentieth century was also the time when Warhol opened an important chapter in his painterly career. In the early sixties, he started executing celebrity portraits. In 1962, he completed series such as Marilyn and Red Elvis as well as portraits of Natalie Wood and Warren Beatty, followed, a year later, by Jackie and Ten Lizes. In total, Warhol produced hundreds of paintings depicting stars and famous personalities. "is major chapter in his artistic career coincided, in 1969, with the founding of Interview magazine, a monthly devoted to cinema and to the celebration of celebrity, in which Warhol was the driving force.

  • Collectable Elvis
    1 COLLECTIBLE ELVIS By Scott K. Van Den Berg EXT. BATHROOM - NIGHT A young Elvis Presley checks his reflection. It might be Elvis except that the sideburns are a decidedly different color than the greased hair, and more the texture of felt than of sideburn hair. Elvis, Wesley rather, talks to the mirror. It certainly sounds like Elvis. WESLEY You talking to me? You talking to me? Thank you very much. Wesley checks his watch, an Elvis watch, reacting with panic. WESLEY Oh man! He hurriedly squeezes toothpaste on a collectible Elvis toothbrush, then reconsiders and sucks some toothpaste out of the tube, swallows, puts on jeweled sunglasses and darts down a very narrow hallway to the livingroom. He wears the same black leather jumpsuit that Elvis wore for his 1968 comeback tour. INT. LIVINGROOM - NIGHT The small livingroom has a worn sofa along one wall, covered with a blanket bearing Elvis' likeness. A guitar case rests on the sofa. Wesley grabs it and a tiny amplifier which sets against one side of the sofa. EXT. TRAILER COURT - NIGHT Wesley exits a weather-beaten trailer and hops into a sad-looking old panel van which bears the license plate, "LV1S L1VS". A hand-painted sign on the side of the van reads, "Wesley 'Elvis' Wringer- Tribute to Elvis: Bookings Available, 555-505-0099". EXT. STREET - NIGHT Wesley's panel van races past a steel building bearing the sign, "The Door Store and More, Equipment Rental Here". A bit further down the road, Wesley blows past an old Volkswagon. He doesn't notice.

I situate certain modes, discourses, and texts produced by prisoners—scientific research, jailhouse legal work, letter-writing, revolutionary polemic, and testimonial writing—within a larger rubric of what I call “productive intellectual labor.” The project draws on Marxist debates to define each part of that term and employs the work of Michel Foucault to contextualize prevailing historical notions regarding penal labor, the evolution of punishment, and discursive trends of those writing back to power.

  • Exploring the Affordances of Role in the Online History Education Project "Place out of Time:"
    Exploring the Affordances of Role in the Online History Education Project "Place Out of Time:" A Narrative Analysis A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (Ph.D.) In the Department of Educational Studies College of Education, Criminal Justice, and Human Services 2014 by Jennifer E. Killham BS. Southern Illinois University Carbondale, 2004 M.A. University of Cincinnati, 2009 Committee Chair: Prentice Chandler Abstract This qualitative, collaborative inquiry project explored the affordances of role enacted in Place Out of Time (POOT), an online, historical character-playing activity designed to promote deeper engagement with historical thinking and perspective taking. The overview of the dissertation presented in Chapter 1 is followed by three distinct literature reviews on history education, POOT, and games and roleplay. Methodologically, the principles of practitioner inquiry guided this work. This dissertation aimed to improve the educational activity of POOT by answering organic, emergent questions participants had about their experiences during and after participation. This research occurred in two different phases. During phase one, participants expressed a desire to understand the tensions around their firsthand experiences of portraying someone other than themselves. Phase two addressed the opportunities and challenges related to the inclusion of fictional, controversially portrayed, and artistic characters. Consequently, a more targeted investigation into the dimensions of character-play was conducted in phase two. These tensions were worthy of such an in-depth investigation because preliminary research revealed character selection impacted participant performance and the assessment of this performance. Participants included K-12 students enrolled in POOT through a participating middle school or high school classroom.

  • Otherwise Imagining Queer Feminist Art Histories
    rethinking art's histories Otherwise Imagining queer feminist art histories Edited by Amelia Jones and Erin Silver Improper objects: 4 performing queer/feminist art/history Tirza True Latimer Feminist scholars and queer scholars grapple with improper objects - histor­ ical subjects whose bodies, achievements, and/or bonds are not the stuff of official histories. This engagement with historical invisibility sometimes calls for the mobilization of techniques frowned on by 'proper historians; as Hayden White refers to those who seek to 'explain what happened in the past by providing a precise and accurate reconstruction of the events reported in the documents:' What if there are no documents, or the documentshave been expurgated, sealed, or destroyed? Contending with historical erasure places special demands on feminist and queer researchers. They must view gaps, absences, and apparitions as historically consequential. Although feminist studies and queer studies are not measurable by the same standards, and sometimes work at cross-purposes, they clearly grapple with many of the same problems. Both domains define themselves in critical relation to hegemonic formations and enable analysis of institutionalized power dynamics whose differentials include race, class, ethnicity, ability, sexuality, as well as gender. They share political commitments outside the academy. Yet during the 1990s, with the ascent of theories questioning the material bases of gender and sexuality, misunderstandings divided academic allegiances along feminist and queer lines. Elizabeth Weed, founding director of the Pembroke Center for Teaching and Research on Women at Brown University, edited a collection of essays and interviews airing these debates. In the introduction to Feminism Meets Queer Theory, Weed argues that 'the feminism against which queer theory defines itself, is a feminism reduced almostto caricature: a feminism tied to a concern forgender, bound to a regressive and monotonous binary opposition:2 Any such reduction of feminist critique calls for analysis, Weed rightly insists.
