THE WARHOL LESSON

«Abounding were gurus and micro-minis. And there were Andy Warhol, Eddie Sedgwick and Timothy Leary, the Fillmore and the Electric Circus. Only Warhol has survived in any recognizable form, perhaps because he understood, during his heydays twenty years ago, what Manhattan East Village was all about: That nobody's going to do it for you, that someone else's idea needn't be yours and that it's counterproductive to take no as an answer».
