Warholian Questionnaire

WARHOL QUESTIONNAIRE:
Justin Vivian Bond

As a self-described “trans-fabulous performance-activist,” Justin Vivian Bond has been on the front line of gender and sexuality debates for decades, paving the way for LGBT visibility worldwide. Beyond being a fixture at Joe’s Pub in New York City, Mx. Bond was one half of the Tony-nominated cabaret duo, Kiki & Herb (with Kenny Mellman), […]

Warhol Questionnaire: Billy Hough

This month, Billy Hough will don a Warhol-appropriate fright wig and perform “Scream Along with Billy”, his self-described “punk cabaret act” with Susan Goldberg, at Joe’s Pub in New York City. Hilton Als writes in The New Yorker, “Hough’s rough, melancholy voice is a big instrument that belies his diminutive size.” In a new twist, Hough and Goldberg will […]

Andy Warhol Quotes

Our Favorite Warhol Quotes

Over the past few years, we’ve been putting together Warholian Questionnaires with some of our favorite Warhol worshippers. Aside from Andy’s screenprints, photographs, movies, and music, we also appreciate the artist’s attention-grabbing quips. We’ve asked a few of our favorites cultural figures what quote from Andy they value most.   Here’s some of our favorites: Tabitha Simmons: “People […]

THE WARHOLIAN QUESTIONNAIRE:
Paige Adams-Geller

If Andy met denim maven Paige Adams-Geller, he’d probably be a fan of her ability to elevate an all-American status symbol. Her company, Paige, makes some of the most coveted jeans in the world, so it’s no surprise Adams-Geller is a commercial success. But what you might not know is that this Johnny Depp fan […]

THE WARHOL QUESTIONNAIRE: Tabitha Simmons

“If I’m not going to wear it then why would anyone else?” Tabitha Simmons muses in an interview last year with Elle. The English shoe designer and contributing editor at Vogue has been busy these past few months, even finding time to collaborate with Toms to create a signature design for the popular shoe-tailer . This […]

THE WARHOL QUESTIONNAIRE: Christene Barberich

“The most fashionable girls around town now are the girls of the night. They wear the most fashionable clothes,” Andy Warhol wrote in The Philosophy of Andy Warhol: From A to B and Back Again. Christene Barberich, the editor-in-chief of Refinery 29, knows a thing or two about the latest trends, being that she runs “a lifestyle platform that delivers […]

The Warhol Questionnaire: Ari Seth Cohen

Ari Seth Cohen, the founder of Advanced Style — the blog, book, and now a glorious coloring book  — gives us a glimpse into a world where clothes pop at any age. (We’re guessing Andy would approve of this message.) As Cohen writes on his blog, “Respect your elders and let these ladies and gents teach you a thing or […]

THE WARHOLIAN QUESTIONNAIRE:
Aaron Hicklin

As editor-in-chief of Out, America’s largest gay men’s magazine, Aaron Hicklin knows a thing or two about gay culture. And while Andy Warhol wasn’t the first openly-gay celebrity in American history, he was certainly one of the first to gain such mainstream acceptance: Indeed, it’s hard to imagine popular culture today without him. In conjunction […]

Warholian Questionnaire

THE WARHOLIAN QUESTIONNAIRE:
Wendy Brandes

Andy Warhol had a thing for jewels. He famously said he thought “it would be very glamorous to be reincarnated as a big ring on Pauline de Rothschild’s finger.” And as fashion designer Carolina Herrera recounted to Christie’s recently, she once scored a portrait from Andy in exchange for her gold-mesh-and-diamond-encrusted Van Cleef & Arpels clutch. Jewelry designer Wendy Brandes barely missed […]

Warholian Questionnaire

THE WARHOLIAN QUESTIONNAIRE:
Jackie Beat

Roseanne Barr called her “the greatest drag queen on earth.” The New York Times warned that “small children may be frightened” of her ribald live performances. Both were probably right. Jackie Beat’s rowdy, flamboyant, celebrity-skewering musical parodies take no prisoners, twisting and playfully perverting the songs of Britney Spears, Madonna, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, and anyone else […]
