ITT people who will analyze the fuck out of a TV show or movie going full the curtains are blue mode on fucking Andy Warhol of all people.
Okay, but for real, the photo you've just posted, being what it is, is a pretty provocative art piece itself. As @[email protected] said, his art was some meta bullshit regarding the artwork used for advertising and other disposable things, made in a disposable way and sold as high art and it was high art cause he was a high artist.

Summary of your takes in this thread: "I am not a fan of Andy Warhol but all art that came after him directly owes him for its existence because he is the Great Man in History.
