Andy Warhol

Andy Warhol on the Web

www.warhol.org The website of the Andy Warhol Museum, and therefore by far the most accessible and best designed. It contains details of the museum’s collection as well as of forthcoming events and educational programmes. The information about the Warhol archive — 8000 cubic feet of material — is particularly fascinating.

osws.artmuseum.net The One Stop Warhol Shop, a sort of exhibition in cyberspace, developed by the Warhol Museum and designed to be ‘the single most comprehensive Internet Source on Andy Warhol.’ An excellent site, but you will need a very powerful Internet connection or an amazing amount of patience to get the best out of it.

www.angelfire.com/ny2/ediesedgwick The Edie Sedgwick and Andy Warhol page, with an emphasis on the former, but it contains several galleries of photographs, many of which show Sedgwick and Warhol together. The site also contains a short voice clip of Sedgwick.

www.billyname.com A wonderfully eccentric site devoted to Billy Name, Warhol’s house photographer, and the man who first painted the Factory silver. It contains interviews with Name and a large gallery of his excellent photographs.

members.aol.com/jeremymp/warhol.html Andy Warhol, a Celebration of Genius. A fan site, and some of it pretty amateurish, featuring artworks, poems and appreciation’s by (one assumes rather young) fans of Andy Warhol. But it provides proof, if proof were needed, of the extent to which Warhol’s work still connects with a youthful audience.

www.warhols.com A commercial site selling Warhol art, but still of interest to those not buying, since it tends to show the less well known and less reproduced works.
