Diários de Andy Warhol

Great portrait of Warhol and the world that surrounded him that I'll admit I'd didn't know much about. I'm very glad I got to see this. This film is free of sensation and a very respectful chronology of art and artist's relationship with people and the world.

I completely enjoyed this documentary series. If you like documentaries you'll like this. If you like Andy Warhol you'll love this. It's informative and layered. I think it's a great binge watch candidate. This series really captures the New York art scene from the late 60's and into the late 80's. It's an entertaining and thoughtful piece focusing on Warhol's rise to fame and all the interesting and artistic characters that entered and left his universe. There was much about Andy Warhol's life and history that I didn't know about and this documentary series covers all the bases. And yet I find myself asking if anyone ever really knew this complex artist. His flaws and insecurities are explored as is his somewhat conflicted love life. Several aspects of this series really resonated with me, which leads me to admit that I may be a tad biased. All who were involved with this work of art should feel proud and should also be applauded for a job well done.

Didn't particularly like the first few episodes, but I enjoyed the last few ones, so hang in there. This is a wonderful, insightful, profound and entertaining biopic. Plus the majority of his friends, friends, are alive to provide insight and interpretations to his diary entries, wonderfully narrated.

Amazing how prophetic and influential his work and life are to our current era. He was the original "selfie, marketeer, and social influencer." He took fotos and video of all his events, work, social and intimate activities. In fact, it is commented what craziness he would have creative had lived he in the current social media age.

I had no idea about Warhol's life except for his pop and Campbell's art. This documentary shows the human side of the artist. His weakness, fears, insecurities for which his only outlet would've been his art. Like most people in the industry, his brilliance had a price to pay. I respect his art, even though I am not a fan I watched this with an open mind and learned so much more.

This was a binge watch for me as the 70's & 80's was my time in NYC living in an illegal loft before Soho became the in place for the BBQ crowd, I don't mean barbeque. I knew most of the people that hung out with Warhol and Basquiat and met both of them many times during the disco, drugs, drinks era. I spent most of my salary each month buying art from both of them when Basquiat was selling signed drawings on postcards for $25 and Warhol who couldn't give away his Campbell soup can paintings away at the The Odeon, which is celebrating their 42nd anniversary this year. Yes I had great insight at that time of what would be one day and now smile every time I see the prices that both of these artists command at auction. The documentary by Ryan Murphy focuses more on Warhol's lonely life as a closeted gay man looking for love and his obsession with beautiful Waspy men and death. The interviews with his inner circle that are still alive was insightful but as my title says no one will ever know the real Andy Warhol.
