Andy Warhol's getting another 15 minutes. This life-size chrome statue, by sculptor Rob Pruitt, stands (until next month, I hear) in Union Square, very near the site of the Factory (the one from the '70s), across the park from Max's Kansas City (where I met him in the '60s), and very close to where he used to stand and hand out copies of Interview.

Nice street photo.
ReplyDeleteRegards!
And he would have like it this way.
ReplyDeleteOh, and thanks for your kind comments in my blog.
This bright and shiny tribute seems very appropriate. And somehow I'm not surprised to learn you met the original, Alexa.
ReplyDeleteWhere is Andy off to next?
ReplyDeleteWas living in Greenwich Village with my uncle during the summers of '59 and '61 but did not run into him. Too early?
