Art Cakes

One of the pages in flavorpill's list of pop culture cakes is on cakes inspired by visual art, and I just had to re-post their awesomeness.
Who wouldn't want a cake based on the work of Warhol, Picasso, Hirst, Banksy, or Mondrian?!?

(Pollock)

(Warhol)

(van Gogh)

(Picasso)

(Mondrian)

(Banksy)

(Hirst)

I'm particularly fond of the Mondrian and Banksy cakes, although the Warhol and Hirst ones are pretty darn cool as well.

Andy Warhol on YouTube

I saw this video on another blog...

(including another gem of a Braniff Air commercial with Dalí...)
And it led me to a multitude of Andy Warhol youtube videos:








I think my favorite is the TDK ad...and the Dalí screen test.
Did you know Andy Warhol had three television shows?
"- Andy Warhol's Fashion (ca. 1980)
- Andy Warhol's TV (ca 19981)
- Andy Warhol's Fifteen Minutes (1987)
ANDY WARHOL'S FASHION was shown on Manhattan Cable, Andy Warhol's TV was shown on the the Madison Square Garden Network and Andy Warhol's Fifteen Minutes was shown on MTV."
from Zamboni, where you can watch and even download some episodes.
Also, couldn't resist posting this Duchamp interview found during the Andy Warhol-athon:
