Nonostante la sua immensa fama, la produzione di Andy Warhol degli anni '70 e '80 ha ricevuto poca attenzione. Il documentario esplora la sua evoluzione come artista, dall’essere sopravvissuto a un attentato al suo ritorno alla pittura. Attraverso interviste ai suoi amici e ad artisti come Damien Hirst, KAWS, Jeff Koons, Marilyn Minter, Tom Sachs, Julian Schnabel, Larry Gagosian, Debbie Harry, Tama Janowitz, Kim Kardashian e Chris Stein, il filmato offre una nuova prospettiva sull'enigmatica figura che continua ad influenzare il mondo dell'arte di oggi.
The Warhol Effect is a new documentary film delving into the late work, life, and enduring legacy of Andy Warhol. Despite his immense influence, little attention has been given to his 1970s and 80s output. From surviving an assassination attempt to his prolific return to painting, the film explores Warhol's evolution as an artist and his lasting impact on contemporary culture. Through interviews with his friends and modern artists such as Damien Hirst, KAWS, Jeff Koons, Marilyn Minter, Tom Sachs, Julian Schnabel, Larry Gagosian, Debbie Harry, Tama Janowitz, Kim Kardashian, and Chris Stein, the film offers a fresh perspective on the enigmatic figure who continues to shape the art world today.
