Uncle Andy would be proud...

I absolutely love Andy Warhol. I am admittedly a giant sponge - consuming information in every pop culture form, just like Andy. I've always felt like he understood the inherent beauty in the everyday disposability and immediacy of our daily lives. He made soup very expensive... he's a genius. Anyways... Christie's is auctioning off a collection of clothing items and polaroids from Andy's nephew Jeffrey Warhola including one of his silver wigs from the 1960s and a pair of green corduroy pants!

I think Andy would be very pleased... he'd love the fact that people would spend lots of money for random things he gave his nephew. He would love that his name draws that kind of attention. He would probably blush and act like he didn't care.. but he would secretly love it. Who said everyone would be famous for 15 minutes... more like 15 millenial minutes.
