Factory Party
hanging with Edie and Andy
highlight of the evening
This First Friday spectacular art, music, and film event celebrates the works of
regional artists and pays tribute to Andy Warhol and his Factory, the original New York City studio from 1962 to 1968. The Factory Party takes place in a massive warehouse space divided into nine distinct rooms where guests are immersed in a wide range of art mediums, as well as live art, musical performances and theatrical art forms. A portion of this event features a re-creation of Andy Warhol’s Factory, and is brought you by the East Bay Express. Visitors entering the Factory will see live production of art in the style and process performed by Andy Warhol, including silk screening, filming, screen testing, and painting. Velvet Underground cover bands will perform, recreating sounds at the Factory. Guests are encouraged to dress in their 1960’s best and are welcome to lounge in the Factory with “Warhol” and his “Super Stars”.
Best interactive art: walking through square of light on the floor created movement and sqiggles on the wall.
Warhol Live at the De Young
SPOILER ALERT!MonkeyBoy is not working right now so we seem to be getting out more. We went to see Andy Warhol Live and the Yves St. Laurent exhibits at the De Young, and they were fabulous. I wish I had photos to show you but no photos allowed.
Warhol Live was great. My favorite parts were the quotes on the walls and the "room". The room was a montage of slides changing and moving, there was a pile of cushions where you could lie down and look up. my fav...
Loved:
"Everyone will be famous for 15 minutes"...I'm bored with that line. I never use it anymore. My new line is "In 15 minutes everybody will be famous."

Gross National Happiness
Gross National Happiness is the attempt to define the quality of life in more holistic and psychological terms than the gross national product.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gross_National_Happiness
Gotta love that as a goal for a country.
