During the Grey seminar at Cannes Lions 2013, musician Lou Reed gives an insight into what it was like to work with Andy Warhol and why he thinks he was a genius.
Love lou💖👍. rest in peace my friend. I love the good things you said about Andy that was so sweet.Rest in peace to Andy and all who died years ago known from the Factory.Godbless them and hopefully there together united again.❤🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🕊🌹🙏
Had a frailness. But he was down. I think he got a kick out of how he seemed truly like an artifact of another time. A very special time. Lou kept his looks bless him, and I'm glad he shared himself like this even up until his passing. Deeply insightful, rest in peace.
Glad this is here. If Lou's perspective on Andy interests you, there is a video on youtube of a live for the cameras performance of him & John Cale doing the whole album "Songs for Drella". Especially if you have not heard the album, check this out.
RIP Andy and Lou. In the world today there are no artists like them. The Artworld in NYC was full of amazing talents who set the standard for culture with intelligence. Above the Beatles or others.
He suffered horribly in the end. Friends say he was crying in despair in his final days at the hospital. Nobody gets out of life alive so all in all he had the good life despite the horrific end.
My Source is a friend of his who visited him in the hospital in the days before he passed. He said it was terrible to see him in pain and in despair, but like I said. It ends for everyone and a life isn`t a bad life just because you have a painful exit.
John Cale was interviewed after Lou died and said it was sad that Lou went back to drinking before he died. After the VU reunion, they went their separate ways and never did patch things up. However, Laurie Anderson said he was sober at the end. In this interview, it's clear Lou is frail and he must've died soon after, but he seemed really ok under the circumstances---much better than I would've been. I really miss him and Bowie, and Lennon, the scores of other musicians that died. Too, too many.
Just for the record: Reed claims that Warhol was the first to do multi-media installations/performances which is not true. Fluxus, John Cage, Claes Oldenburg, Allen Kaprow, etc. were doing these types of events 5 to 15 years before Warhol.
He seems OK for his age and rather looking well! Why do you say looking and sounding so frail!?!? Why write such rubbish!? Listen to what he has to say because that is all that is important!!!!
Stupid laugh Form The english inter vieuwer al through The words Mister Reed Were saying. That is disturbing, except that Mister Reed says nothing NEW to bis audience about Andy Warhol.(Andy's Chest) but ah- I recordnice everyone around Lou Reed getting somekind of a nervös Tick in bis presents. I die too, When i met Lou Reed. I was stottering to him, giving him a Pendel and said some things to him. He represent an inputmain of floating given-sucking Source Of Energy/Magnetisme.
@@rdvrlrn Ive got to think about how to explain it. Hmmm well, when men who are not real secure w themselves over compensate masculinity and exerts control when there's nothing to control or prove. When anyone does that regardless of gender indicates insecurity. Ive always seen him that way. Ive known people who copied him believing lou was a "real man" even during Lou's bi-sexual days. Hard to explain but easy to see/hear
Warhol was a serial user, he used ppl as inspiration and threw them out like toys wen he got bored of him if that’s genius I don’t wanna be that I’d rather be human, Dylan always hated Warhol for that he said he’d do it to Edie sedgewick wen they had a thing or whatever and he was right she was so drugged up wen she was cast aside she destroyed herself and died young
well sure you could look andy and his legacy as an artist that way but really that's such a limited and negative oversimplification. sure he was inspired by those that were around him most creative people do draw inspiration from the outside world and others beside themselves... and do you not think he in turn inspired those very people, do you think people flocked to him against their own volition or perhaps it was just that, that he inspired and made so many lost souls feel so special that when he no longer paid them any attention they felt as though he betrayed them, that he owed them something when really he was simply living his life and create as much art as possible
Mr Gunn: when, specifically, did Dylan say he hated Warhol because Warhol used people then disposed of them? Assuming Dylan did say that, don't you think it was a bit of a case of the pot calling the kettle black?
