Heck, I agree with you about that. He should have just sold soup cans. And that is what other artists in modern art have basically done after him, in part because Warhol pushed the boundary towards that first. A lot of modern art is showing off commercialization. Like that Banksy piece that shredded itself after being auctioned off.
And also I wanna say: Warhol himself fucking sucks. I am not defending him I am just defending his work as being influential.
