experimental cinema ------- Andy Warhol


                                    Andy Warhol experimental films


Andy is not on the writing list, however, I am really interested in him since he likes to focus on figures.
                                                                          

        Let's take the 'secret tests' as an example. Andy involved so many figures in it. They were all very natural , with a particular facial expression or doing certain stuff. And they were looking directly into the camera, but giving the audience different feelings. However, the background music was like a string, installing the figures in series. It was like the figures have a subtle relationship between them as they switched with the sound 'pomp!'. It all ended to the scene of the city. The transition was quite abrupt. Therefore, the sudden abruption was quite think-provoking ------ the different figures in the same city.

                                                                                                                  Kiss (1963)
                                Sleep(1963)
       
                                                                                                                  Eat(1963)


                               Blow Job(1964)
    Andy chosed very daily things, it seemed like he was put the fragments together and it became an art piece. And these four can demonstrate it well. It naturally involve the audience by the facial expression of the actors and the actresses (or maybe they cannot be even called the actors and the actresses, they expressed so naturally just like the camera didn't exist).
   He was an artist ,a director and a photographer. But first of all, he was a philosopher. And his philosophy was what constructed all his work. He has a very unique thinking towards love, sex and death.
