The walk analysis excludes open space resources that are not always accessible to the general public, like community gardens, nature areas without trails or other access, concessions, cemeteries, and undeveloped property. NYC Parks properties also excluded: standalone buildings and institutions, triangles and plazas less than 0.20-acres, parkways without active-play resources, strips and malls.

  • Andy Warhol￢ﾀﾙs Deaths and the Assembly-Line Autobiography
    OCAD University Open Research Repository Faculty of Liberal Arts & Sciences and School of Interdisciplinary Studies 2011 Andy Warhol’s Deaths and the Assembly-Line Autobiography Charles Reeve OCAD University [email protected] © University of Hawai'i Press | Available at DOI: 10.1353/bio.2011.0066 Suggested citation: Reeve, Charles. “Andy Warhol’s Deaths and the Assembly-Line Autobiography.” Biography 34.4 (2011): 657–675. Web. ANDY WARHOL’S DEATHS AND THE ASSEMBLY-LINE AUTOBIOGRAPHY CHARLES REEVE Test-driving the artworld cliché that dying young is the perfect career move, Andy Warhol starts his 1980 autobiography POPism: The Warhol Sixties by refl ecting, “If I’d gone ahead and died ten years ago, I’d probably be a cult fi gure today” (3). It’s vintage Warhol: off-hand, image-obsessed, and clever. It’s also, given Warhol’s preoccupation with fame, a lament. Sustaining one’s celebrity takes effort and nerves, and Warhol often felt incapable of either. “Oh, Archie, if you would only talk, I wouldn’t have to work another day in my life,” Bob Colacello, a key Warhol business functionary, recalls the art- ist whispering to one of his dachshunds: “Talk, Archie, talk” (144). Absent a talking dog, maybe cult status could relieve the pressure of fame, since it shoots celebrities into a timeless realm where their notoriety never fades. But cults only reach diehard fans, whereas Warhol’s posthumously pub- lished diaries emphasize that he coveted the stratospheric stardom of Eliza- beth Taylor and Michael Jackson—the fame that guaranteed mobs wherever they went. (Reviewing POPism in the New Yorker, Calvin Tomkins wrote that Warhol “pursued fame with the single-mindedness of a spawning salmon” [114].) Even more awkwardly, cult status entails dying—which means either you’re not around to enjoy your notoriety or, Warhol once nihilistically pro- posed, you’re not not around to enjoy it.

  • CITYREALTY NEW DEVELOPMENT REPORT MANHATTAN NEW DEVELOPMENT REPORT May 2015 Summary
    MAY 2015 MANHATTAN NEW DEVELOPMENT REPORT CITYREALTY NEW DEVELOPMENT REPORT MANHATTAN NEW DEVELOPMENT REPORT May 2015 Summary Apartment prices in new development condominiums in Manhattan have increased at a fast clip, a trend boosted by the upper end of the market. Sales of new condominium units included in this report are expected to aggregate between $27.6 and $33.6 billion in sales through 2019. The average price of these new development units is expected to reach a record of $5.9 million per unit in 2015. At the same time, far fewer units are being built than during the last development boom, in the mid-2000s, therefore the number of closed sales is expected to increase more modestly than their prices. 2013 2014 2015-2019* TOTAL NEW DEVELOPMENT SALES $2.7B $4.1B $27.6B-$33.6B+ Pricing information for the 4,881 new development units covered in this report comes from active and in-contract listings, offering plans, and projections based on listing prices. For a complete list of buildings included in this report, see pages 5-6 (New Developments by Building Detail). Ultimately, sales of these apartments will total roughly $27.6 to $33.6 billion through 2019. Sales in new developments totaled $4.1 billion in 2014, up 50 percent from 2013. The 2013 total, $2.7 billion, also represented a significant increase from the $1.9 billion recorded in 2012. While total sales volume has increased in recent years, it is still substantially less than at the height of the market, in 2008, when new development sales totaled $10.4 billion.

Unlike many contemporary artists, who look skeptically at the divide between utility and fine art, Shannon embraces their opposition. “To the degree that something is functional, it is less ‘art.’ Because art is a mysterious activity,” he says. “I really distinguish between the two activities.

  • Warhols Wahre Heimat
    Gesellschaft LEGENDEN Warhols wahre Heimat Das einzige Pop-art-Museum Europas findet sich im hintersten Winkel der Ostslowakei – im Stammland der Familie von Andy Warhol, alias Andrijku Warhola. Von Alexander Smoltczyk ngrid Bezaková sitzt auf der Couch un- term Heiligenbild und stickt Pop-art in Iein Sofakissen. Sie stickt das Monroe- Motiv, die Katze Sam und Mohnblumen in Pink und Gelb. Ingrid ist selbst Monroe-blond; das sind viele hier in der Gegend. Aber nur sie hat einen Onkel Andrijku, der sich drüben, jenseits des Atlantiks, Andy Warhol nen- nen ließ und so bekannt wurde wie die Mickymaus. So wollte auch Ingrid nach New York fahren, Andys Bruder John hat- te sie eingeladen. Doch dann wurde das Visum verweigert. Und so sitzt Andy War- hols Nichte weiter in Miková, einem 146- Seelen-Dorf jenseits der Hohen Tatra, sitzt bei ihrer Mutter auf dem Sofa und stickt Mohnblumen auf Kissen, als sei sie fest entschlossen, die Ikonen ihres Pop-Onkels dorthin zurückzubringen, wo der sie ge- funden hatte: in die gute Stube. Das Dorf Miková liegt in einer Senke des Karpatengebirges, mitten in Ruthe- nien, einem ebenso gottverlassenen wie gottesfürchtigen Landstrich im äußeren Osten der Slowakei, wo man kyrillisch schreibt und noch jedem Auto hinterher- schaut. Mit rotem Blech sind die Dächer beschlagen, in den Gärten stehen Zwie- beln und Chrysanthemen und darüber der Erlöser aus bemaltem Blech. Bis heu- te holt man das Wasser aus dem Brunnen. Es ist ziemlich weit von Miková bis nach Manhattan.
