Being good in business is the most fascinating kind of art. Making money is art and working is art and good business is the best art.
-Andy Warhol

Personally, I think pop-art was the most important art-form of the 20th Century, but within the space of a decade, it was no longer “distinct from the dream”… and that is what we need in the longer term. Warhol’s stuff is now indistinguishable from advertising, and advertising isn’t art.
And despite what Warhol said, being good in business and Making Money, are not art – that’s just a sentiment to stroke the egos of worthless MBAs and assorted greed-heads. Bet you can get that quote on an Athens motivational poster.
Yea http://www.allposters.com/-st/Warhol-Quotes-Posters_c105871_.htm – quelle surprise
@nick, i think advertising can be art, it’s rare, risky, but it’s possible and there are many examples 🙂
