I went to check out the Andy Warhol exhibit at the Winnipeg Art Gallery.  It’s been a century since I was last in there.  I do always enjoy the gift shop.   I learned a lot more about Andy Warhol, I admittedly knew very little to start with.  By the end, I respected him as a business man more than anything else.  He admitted that the reason he liked the silk screen printing process was so that he could make more paintings and the technique facilitated the use of his assistants.  His boxes which were exact replicas of grocery items were another attempt to sell mass quantities of his products.  He figured people would buy them and stack them up.  It was neat seeing a well-known artist’s work who walked the Earth at a time I existed as well.  Usually great art is from centuries past.

I highly recommend that if you go there you pick up an ipod from the gift shop that has tracks related to the feature artist and their work.  It helps a lot.
