Andy Warhol, Computer Artist

Andy Warhol, You are the One

Andy Warhol acquired a battery of Amiga computers in the months after their launch, and experimented using these computers with the same enthusiasm as any medium he ever approached. Until its 2001 discovery, what had only been hinted at and rumored is that Warhol had actually created a short digital film on one such computer, probably the first such digital creation by any important artist.
 
The film, titled "You Are the One", is being debuted for the first time anywhere at the Museum of New Art (MONA). However, due to threatened legal action tied to estate disputes and to its pending seizure, the museum will only be allowed a one day screening of the film. “We are so excited at this once in a lifetime opportunity," remarked Mr Friedhoff, then added sadly: “Yet after this single viewing, I’m afraid the work will be lost again for at least another generation.”
