“Good business is the best art”, Andy Warhol once said. It's a sentiment that may well have formed an ill-advised strap line to Tate Modern’s much lauded Pop Life: Art in a Material World.

If there is one book that sums up the maelstrom of superficiality, white-hot ambition and old-world/new-wave glamour of Andy Warhol's New York years it is former Interview editor Bob Colacello's awesome Holy Terror:

The Death of the Cool : Cool was once associated with reticence, savoir-faire, and irony, none of which is much practiced or regarded these days. (Robert McHenry, November 20, 2009, American) Who and what was cool? Cary Grant was cool, and of course Steve McQueen . Thelonious S. Monk (anybody remember when Time captioned a picture of him “Melodious Thunk”?) and Horace Silver, Fairfield...

The Musings of Ondo Lady (Free subscription) | 20/11/2009
Bright, vivid and loud are just a few words that are used to describe David LaChappelle's work. He has been dubbed the feline of photography because he crosses the line between art and celebrity in his work. Like Mario Testino, LaChappelle embraces the celeb rock star element by blowing up that thing that makes that person tick and as a result he makes them larger than life. Raised in South Carolina,...

Andy Warhol was fascinated by boredom for two perfectly good reasons: It allowed him to see things he otherwise would have missed, and it meant that, overall, things were going pretty well if life's daily dramas were not overwhelming, debilitating...

Darlings, I have fallen in love with a wild animal. Not just any wild animal, mind you; a leopard. A leggy specimen with the grace and poise of a model on the catwalk, coupled with the speed and agility of a toned marathon runner. I imagine there is no other animal more perfect to fall in love with; but I digress. I suppose I should be more specific in my musings. Oui, it is the leopard that is the...

Today I was going to try and learn how to do something completely new, but fell back into the whole pop art design element. First thing I did when I woke up, was create a pop art can of Red Bull, a 21st Century version of Andy Warhol's classic Campbell soup. The final product looked like this: I'm planning on expanding this into a series, changing colours around and repeating the image over and over...

Raen Eyewear teams up with Alex Knost to develop a co-op frame for their second complete collection coming in Spring 2010. “Staying true to RAEN’s vintage-inspired foundation, the ‘Flowers’ frame is a throwback to the days at the Factory and the gender-bending Andy Warhol-esque style. This collaboration with Alex was seamless as we share the [...] This article originally appeared...

Believe it or not, Andy Warhol was an illustrator before he sold out to commercialism and started producing avant-garde tripe which now looks extremely dated (unlike the delectable Twiggy; see below). He drew this illustration of The Little Red Hen for a children's book in the late 1950's. Not brilliant, but better than anything he produced once he became famous. Four of these drawings go for auction...

Maybe I'll even be doing some portrait illustrations of my readers, yes you :) Not that I'll be...
