Certainly I have made comments on American society with the various pictures and have done about nine antiwar paintings. But I did them because I was incorporating my feelings into my work.
From James Rosenquist
Warhol was questioning the capitalist society.
I think of my actions every day: what seems to be important and what isn't.
I used to know Madison Avenue advertisers. I didn't like 'em. Bunch of jerks.
I hate getting old, but I'm sticking with it!
I started billboard painting in Minneapolis, and I went to General Outdoor Advertising, and I said, 'I could do that.' They said, 'Oh yeah... we can always use a good man around here.'
