It well shows Warhol. He was a money maker. But a refined intellectual too. He well knew that the biggest provocation is to admit the evidence.
But his aesthetic teaching has not reached the mass. We are surrounded by images and many of them become symbols but the most people take them passively. It's like to swallow a pill without knowing either what it is. It can works but we don't know why.
Warhol reported it (why if not to paint a canned soup?) but at the end the result is that his face has become another symbol and a few else more per many.
Not for you. Good for you.
