I don't think I have seen anything about Warhol getting funding like that but I'd love some reading material if you have it. I read thru a (again, kind of vacuous) biography from one of his contemporaries or models? and it seemed like they were all burnouts that squatted in an old warehouse and then rich kids that wanted a "scene" kind of glommed onto them.
I've only seen it passing and can't remember if it was in the wilds of the Internet or hexbear proper. Sorry
No sweat, thank you comrade
I think it was the pop art scene. I know I said specifically Andy Warhol, but I was more referring to his style however, I do believe he was mentioned as being an asset or funded etc, iirc, but it's been ages since I've seen the info. Again sorry I can't be more helpful and ty for the kind words
