One Day University Lecture- Andy Warhol: Window on the World

Meet in the Living Room.

Andy Warhol saw sublime beauty in the ubiquitous things many of us take for granted, from what we
eat and drink to the icons we admire. For him, art was everywhere, and he revealed this reality to his
viewers one work, one performance, one film at a time. In a postwar world where mass production
and commercialism threatened to chip away at uniqueness, he celebrated the assembly line, in what
he created and how he made it. For these and other reasons we’ll explore, Warhol was one of the
great visionaries and mirrors of his time.
