"Art is what you can get away with" - Andy Warhol.
And that quote pretty much describes the current exhibit of Andy Warhol artwork, on display at the Gallery of Modern Art. Some of it is quite striking, some of it mundane, a lot of it appears to be created by an ADHD-suffering lunatic with an extremely short attention span.
For some reason, a lot of his works appear as if he couldn't be bothered finishing them and had found something else more interesting to do instead. I realise that this is part of the appeal of his work (and the art movement he spawned), but for some reason I still think that someone who's last name wasn't Warhol, wouldn't be able to get away with it.
Apart from all this - it is a pretty interesting look at a wide array of his works.
