New question: Warhol's images were not original, yet he was able to create several 1,000 images using reproduction. Do you think the silk screen technique was a genius move on his part? What do you think of him as an artist? Does he even qualify as an artist to you? Why or Why not?
My answer to this question was very similar, so I understand where you are coming from. You did a good job describing the techniques that Warhol used to create his art. I also prefer the tighter version of the Coca-Cola bottles for similar reasons. Overall, I think this video blog did a good job of describing both Warhol's work and your interpretation of it.
I think that Warhol's use of silkscreening was very efficient on his part. He was saving himself a lot of time and work. He wanted a very uniform look and he achieved it through this process. Warhol liked repetition and silkscreening was the perfect technique for this. I think Warhol is a fantastic artist who was revolutionary for his time. I see why people think he was kind of copying others, but he always put his own spin on things, so I think he does qualify as an artist.
