The Big Three

The artist that interested me the most is Andy Warhol.  I read up on him and found out that he was an openly gay artist way before the gay and lesbian movement began.  I also found this quote by him interesting.  He had this to say about Coca Cola: What's great about this country is that America started the tradition where the richest consumers buy essentially the same things as the poorest. You can be watching TV and see Coca-Cola, and you know that the President drinks Coca-Cola, Liz Taylor drinks Coca-Cola, and just think, you can drink Coca-Cola, too. A Coke is a Coke and no amount of money can get you a better coke than the one the bum on the corner is drinking. All the cokes are the same and all the cokes are good. Liz Taylor knows it, the President knows it, the bum knows it, and you know it.  I never thought of a product in this way.  It is so true though.  Being from what is now Slovakia he says that this is what he liked about America and what he thought made America so great.  I would not say that i did not find the other two artists interesting i would just say that Andy is the one that caught my eye.  No HOMO.
