There is something cynical about Warhol’s art. We expect art to be uplifting, to carry us away from the mundane, to portray the familiar from a new perspective. Commercial art, like that on a soup can, is designed to not call attention to itself. Its purpose is to draw you toward a product. The container goes in the trash and the product gets consumed. The longevity of commercial art depends on mass production. For every soup can that gets thrown out, there is another coming off the assembly line ready to replace it. Warhol’s art focuses on the crass and repetitive and exploitative. Not very uplifting in my opinion..
