SUPERS
The question. If you make commercials and then make art about commercials what world does that put you in? Warhol left advertising as an illustrator only to recycle Campbell Soup cans into his art. Once established as an art giant he returned to advertising as an on camera celebrity for Sony and a few other brands. Advertising . Art . Advertising…. the snake that eats its own tail. This series of “Supers” is a satirical fleeting glance – the acknowledgement of a sponsor. Blink and you’ll miss it. Short of a billboard it’s as transient as it gets.
