Warhol Advances New Creative Suite Despite Scarred Past
UPI reports Andy Warhol, the pop art icon, pursuing a flurry of projects including a first novel, a color television commercial, a potential play, and a second novel, while recovering from a near fatal shooting at his Factory. He comments on empty walls and notes the expansion of his studio into a film and exhibition space near Union Square. He also notes his earlier controversial SCUM movement and the shooting incident that occurred in June, with a long hospital stay and eventual return to his pale, reticent persona.
