I don't know why, exactly, but I've been obsessed with Andy, the Velvets and the whole Factory thing for a very long time. I still have a soup can trash can I got when I was 9 or 10. I've often dreamed of my own Factory type situation, where talented people met and interacted.
I will often pick up "The Andy Warhol Diaries," say to myself, "Let's see what Andy's doing," and open it up to a random page. I just keep reading that thing, over and over.
This picture comes from a beautiful book of photos by Stephen Shore, called "The Velvet Years."
