Back when I was a grad student, I bought into the negative press associated with the High/Low exhibition. Four months after this interview, I found myself sitting in on a lecture given by Mr Varnedoe on the subject of Andy Warhol. I was taking notes on napkins and whatever else I could scrounge out of my purse. This guy was that good.
We're so fortunate to have this hour. Mr. Varnedoe would have passed my knowing if it were not for you. Truly, thanks.
