Andy Warhol — From A to B and Back Again at
the Whitney Museum broadly show up Andy Warhol’s various kinds of unimaginable
works. Because he is considered as one of the most prominent people of
representing American art, showing his great artworks at New York, where the
center of an art market in the US, has a significant meaning. Warhol’s process
of creating and choosing the content, are always controversial and
challengeable to the traditional artistic value. His works lead people to think
about what is the essential value of art and the criteria of the high and low
that conventionally set.
He reveals himself as a businessman, and it
shows how art is becoming a branch of economic principles and the direction of
the next step for modern art. Based on his machinic process of silk-screening,
he used popular motif such as Campbell Soup cans or Coca Cola bottles that many
are familiar with them. As like, regardless of rich or poor, everyone knows
Coca Cola bottle, Warhol wants art should be the same as that. So, it could be
considered as his controversial thinking of art and artworks satire the
traditional art's world monopoly of evaluating good or badness of art. Through
his various works, he keeps saying us to say there is no right and wrong in
art.
