Andy Warhol Eating a Hamburger




I found this short youtube film randomly whilst doing a work-related search for Andy Warhol last week and must admit that I was riveted ...although the sounds of the wrapper and the ketchup bottle and the chewing were unnerving, it didn't stop me from watching the entire thing. Mind blowing.

Apparently he does not like eating too much bread. . .
the sounds are a big part of it.
I guess i sat through this because it was Andy Warhol and maybe that was the point, but if it were anyone unknown it would be nothing.
I did enjoy watching it and glad you posted.

I adore this!! Andy has almost that uncomfortableness because the camera is on him, he starts to get so fidgety and looks so parched at the end like he should have had a drink to go with it LOL.

Great find. xo

I just watched the whole thing. Sounds like there is a basketball game going on in the background. I definitely give him props for eating a whole burger in front of the camera...I couldn't do it! I think the best part is when he is not eating the burger & sitting there trying not to make eye contact with the camera....ahhhh!

This video was weird and interesting at the same time, I love the way he eats his hamburger, he looks like a shy little boy. It's funny, that he waits a couple of seconds before saying that he finished eating a hamburger.

Ive been a fan of Andy Warhol since a project I did on him a year ago in art class(a myspace page for him if he were alive lol). It is kind of mind blowing. I watched the whole thing. Andy and I have the same habit dipping hamburgers in ketchup (dont ask why I just do it lol)
