Why Warhol was prince of prints
A rewarding new show in London reveals where the American's true brilliance lay

- Inking a new path Andy Warhol's Ten Portraits of Jews of the Twentieth Century (1980), at the Dulwich Picture Gallery in London
What makes Andy Warhol such a significant figure in the history of art? The answer may surprise you, for it is not so much the banal subjects from popular culture he chose to paint but his innovative working method. In 1962 Warhol decided to make fine art by transferring images on to paper or canvas using the silk-screen process, a simple technique of printmaking often employed in the mass production of cheap commercial products such as T-shirts and greeting cards. As his friend Henry Geldzahler, curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, observed, Warhol's innovation was to "bring commercial art into fine art" and "to take printing techniques into painting. Andy's prints and paintings are exactly the same thing. No one had ever done that before. It was an amazing thing to do."
With 80 works ranging from 1964 to 1985, the exhibition, "The Portfolios", at Dulwich Picture Gallery of Warhol's silk-screened prints is just big enough to give us a good idea of the range and variety of a body of work unique in American art. Artists were making silk-screened prints long before he came along, but usually as a simple means of reproducing their own work. Warhol made the technique his own by choosing existing images he found in newspapers and magazines and then transferring them on to paper and fabric. He liked the way silk-screened images tend to print out of register, giving them the look of mechanically reproduced photos in tabloid newspapers. Having chosen the image, he sent it to a lab, where it was stencilled on to an acetate plate. Warhol then manipulated the acetate with chemicals and scissors to give it the distinctive Warhol "look".
Assistants could and did perform other steps in the process of silk-screening, but only Warhol worked on the acetates. Once he was satisfied, the acetate was transferred on to a meshed screen. In the final step, the printer forced silk-screen ink through the mesh and so transferred the design on to paper. For a painting the process was exactly the same, except that Warhol used paint and canvas. The silk-screen process enabled him to choose a motif and then to reproduce it repeatedly in different colour combinations. In most cases, each additional colour required a separate silk-screen.
As you walk through this show, notice that the introduction of colour is gradual and reflects Warhol's increasing mastery of the silk-screen technique. From the black-and-white newspaper photo of a "Race Riot in Alabama" (1964), he moved on to a limited range of red, black, white and yellow in a series of "Campbell's Soup Cans" (1969) and then the delicate palette of lilac, rose, light green and mauve he used in "Flowers" in 1970. Because silk-screening is essentially a mechanical process, it hardly mattered whether Warhol, his assistant, or a commercial printer actually pressed the silk-screen ink through the screen's mesh.This insight enabled Warhol to set up his factory-like method of art production.
It was an especially important factor when it came to print-making because, unlike his paintings, Warhol's prints were never made in his studio, known as the Factory. He would simply give the acetate to offsite printers with instructions as to the colours to be used and the way he wanted the image printed. Sometimes he only spoke to printers such as Rupert Jasen Smith over the telephone and often his directions were vague. "He wanted the prints to be 'more something' or 'less something'," remembered Bob Colacello, editor of Warhol's Interview Magazine, and an employee from 1970 to 1982, "but he couldn't say what that 'something' was".
Though the colours were mixed by the printers, Warhol always refused Jasen Smith's invitations to supervise the work in progress at the printer's studio in Tribeca. After printing the image in many different colour combinations, Jasen Smith brought all the proofs to the Factory, where Warhol chose the ones he liked best and selected them for publication. Jasen Smith then printed the edition. In a conventional print-making process such as etching, the artist prints a limited number of impressions and then destroys the copper plate. But silk-screen prints are not finite in this way. The number of finished works depended on how many impressions Warhol needed, thought he could sell, or needed to limit for commercial reasons. To control the market in his prints Warhol signed and numbered his prints and sold them in limited editions, which from the 1970s onwards included special "trial proofs" and "artist proofs" — the unique proofs that had not been selected for inclusion in each portfolio and which he or his publisher could sell for more money than other prints in an edition.
Jasen Smith was considered one of the best printers in America and he worked with Warhol from 1977 until the artist's death a decade later. One of the most exciting things about this exhibition is the quality of the work he did for Warhol, which was immeasurably more complex than anything Warhol had done in the 1960s. Feast your eyes on screen-prints from the still life series "Fruits", where saturated red, velvety purple, lush orange and sensational washes of lilac are used to create a visual experience as sensuous as anything Warhol had ever done. In the 1978 series featuring four Polaroid shots taken by Warhol of Mohammad Ali, the boxer's brown skin is shown against orange, pink and blue backgrounds. In some of these later works the surface is lightly sprinkled with "diamond dust" (finely powdered glass).
On the other hand, not all of the late work has this kind of visual impact. I find the series "Endangered Species" of birds and animals perfunctory, for example, and mythical figures such as Uncle Sam feel flat and uninspired. But a late, diamond-dusted self-portrait with his shadow retains the intensity of the earlier work. The explanation may simply be that Warhol had more input in some projects than others, but there is no doubt that when he and Jasen Smith worked together their close collaboration was one of the great partnerships in American art.
Its ending, though, was murky. Jasen Smith was responsible for creating thousands of Warhol's paintings and prints in addition to the ones the artist signed and numbered. His large-scale manufacture of Warhol's prints continued after Andy's death in 1987 and ended only with the printer's death in 1989. This is not the place to discuss what happened to pirated prints, except to say that the great majority are not on the market. Although many may be of high quality, their status remains ambiguous because Warhol did not give his approval to their publication.
I bring this up because the show at Dulwich contains only works that are signed and numbered by the artist. Whatever drawbacks there are to showing a corporate collection such as this (the selection was sent ready-made from the US and does not have a catalogue) at least the status of the works in it does justice to Warhol by showing his art as he wished it to be seen.

Is there a slimier United Nations department then UNESCO? In 2006, UNESCO awarded Uzbek dictator Islam Karimov with a medal for preserving Uzbekistan's cultural heritage. Human Rights Watch said that UNESCO's decision to honor Karimov was "a bad joke," "absolutely scandalous," and "incomprehensible in the face of his government's serious violations of human rights." Those violations include the death of one prisoner who was tortured, among other ways by having boiling water poured over his body.
A few years before that, Angola named an international arms dealer, Pierre Falcone, as its ambassador to UNESCO, which allowed him to claim diplomatic immunity and avoid prosecution (until recently) in France.
Now I see that UNESCO has established the UNESCO-Obiang Nguema Mbasogo International Prize for Research in the Life Sciences, which is named for the dictator of Equatorial Guinea, who funded the award to the tune of $3 million. "The purpose of this Prize is to reward the projects and activities of an individual, individuals, institutions, other entities or non-governmental organizations for scientific research in the life sciences leading to improving the quality of human life."
That's ironic, to put it mildly, since Obiang is best known for stealing hundreds of millions of dollars in oil revenues from his country's treasury and crushing his political opponents. Meanwhile, his own people continue to live in misery, and the Obiang government spends virtually nothing on health care, education, or housing.
What's next? The UNESCO-Saudi award for religious freedom? Or the UNESCO-North Korean medal for free and fair elections?

EE Live! conference a big splash in Silicon Valley
I was delighted to hear that UBM, the folks that run the show, are considering moving it to the Santa Clara Convention Center next year. I like Santa Clara better since the parking is free, it's easier to get to, and it's right near my house.
So following are some snaps I took on the show floor. Bear in mind that another big part of the EE Live! is the conference part, where you can learn about the latest secrets and tips and tricks from technical experts. You have to pay for the conference, but they were nice enough to give a single-class pass to regular shmucks like me that were just attending the free show in the exhibit hall.
Here is a little movie of the MakerBot in action. It is hypnotizing to watch.

Muscle Truck vs. Baja Bug! 1974 Chevy C10 Battles Fred's Volkswagen Baja Bug - Roadkill Ep. 28
Remember the drag racing '74 Chevy Muscle Truck from Roadkill Episode 18?
It's back, but with a twist: it's gonna become a true dual-sport ride for
surf and turf, shedding its drag slicks for Super Swamper Boggers and
hitting the sand dunes...hard! And to prove that a lowered, two-wheel-drive
pickup can dominate the dunes, Freiburger and Finnegan set up a shootout
with Fred Williams from the Dirt Every Day series on the Motor Trend
channel. Fred brought out his '69 VW Baja Bug from DED Episode 23 and went
head to head with the Muscle Truck on the beach at Pismo, California.
The Roadkill/HOT ROD Magazine Muscle Truck is a '74 Chevy C10 shortbed,
stepside, with a GM LS6 crate engine (like the all-aluminum V8 found in a
C6 ZO6 Corvette). It's stock other than a small crane cam, midlength
headers, and a new addition for this episode: MSD's Atomic EFI (the truck
used to run a carburetor). The Atomic setup is atop a BBK intake manifold,
and uses a stock LS1 throttle body. That legendary Exhaust sound comes
from 3-inch pipe with 4-inch Dynomax Bullet race mufflers.
The truck's transmission is a JW turbo
400 backed by a Gear Vendors over/underdrive unit. And it really needs
overdrive because the Ford 9-inch rear carries 5.13 gears and a spool. The
suspension features dropped spindles and Ridetech Strong Arms and air bags
up front. In the rear, two leaves were removed from the stock spring packs,
they were flipped under the axle, and traction is delivered by Caltrac's
Roadkill appears every fourth Friday on the Motor Trend channel.

Director Francis Ford Coppola's low-budget feature debut was one of the few pictures to effectively meld a contemporary PSYCHO-type scenario with Gothic horror motifs. When John dies of a heart attack, his wife Louise (Luana Anders) knows she won't get any part of his mother's inheritance if the family finds out he's dead. She travels to the family castle in Ireland to finagle her way into a fortune, but must deal with John's artist brother (William Campbell), his new wife (Mary Mitchel), younger brother Billy (Bart Patton) and a still-alive matriarch. Then someone starts chopping people up with an ax! Fast-moving, with a memorably great score by Ronald Stein and an uncredited Les Baxter. Produced by Roger Corman. "Francis Ford Coppola's first mainstream feature…is a little gem of Gothic horror, stylishly helmed on a shoestring budget." - TV Guide
Born to a Norwegian mother (Liv Ullmann, in what the actress has said will be her final role) and a German soldier, Katrine (Juliane Köhler) has lived happily in Norway for 20 years – until a lawsuit arising from the WWII occupation threatens to divide her family. Based on actual events. With English subtitles.
Ricardo Darin (THE SECRET IN THEIR EYES) stars as Roberto Bermudez, a brilliant former lawyer who now teaches at a university. After a woman is murdered near the school, one of Bermudez's students (Alberto Ammann) takes an unusual interest in the case. Could this mysterious young man be the killer - and is he now toying with the law professor? In Spanish with English subtitles.

They have a lot of fun serving the food. Out comes the swiss flag and a huge pepper mill etc etc. Won't spoil the fun by telling you everything, but it's a must visit for great food and a lively evening.
Great Swiss restaurant, a salute to the fondue by the team which is great fun to watch and be a part of . And the fondue is great too, definitely recommended but very busy so booking advised
Very funny place specialized in Valais dry meat and fondue moitie-moitie which is excellent ! Service are goodand they added some funny actions as the pepper mill ( 1.5 m high) or marching to delivea fondue with a Swiss flag, etcetc. Friendly place with very good local food and of excellent quality.
Better call to reserve table before going. If you order cheese fondue, very interesting things will happen. 到瑞士当然要吃瑞士芝士火锅啦,老板热情得来~不过两个人吃个火锅真的很撑,点一份火锅加一份前餐足够了。上火锅的时候是美女扛大旗上的,热闹得很。
Nice place with really good fondue, served always by waiters carrying Swiss flag and to the loudly played Swiss national anthem - somewhat strange experience at the beginning. What was even better than fondue (and probably had also even more calories) was the dessert - meringues with double cream from Gruyere milk, I can sincerely advice it :-)
Great fun - very Swiss - excellent fondue! Noisy and jolly and order the ice cream with so much alcohol you wont need another drink for hours!
If you want to eat best fondue ever go there. If you want to see very friendly and fanny staff go there! If you want to get pepper from 1,5 m long mild go there!!!
This place is a lot of fun. I mean how can you beat a place that plays the swiss national anthem and marches out with the swiss flag every time some gets their cheese fondue! The fondue was the best - extremely tasty and the wait staff was very funny - bringing out a monstrous wooden spoon for my daughter...
If you are in Vevey and feel like eating something really Swiss, Les 3 Sifflets is the best place to go. Very well known in the region, this Café-Restaurant is the best place to have a cheese fondue. We arrived there in the evening and had dinner in the back patio.
Every time a fondue is served, you can hear...
I took my daughter and great aunt here on a Wednesday evening having booked a table in advance. I'm so glad I did! This is quite a small and informal restaurant. Indeed the small room is called the restaurant and the larger one with the bar is called the café. There isn't really any difference between them in the evening....

in Military
With Thanksgiving only a few days away, and Black Friday immediately following, this broadcast is for y'all to brag about what your are doing, and to shout out to your wife is she is deployed! (516) 453-9167.
Weekly 2-hour web-based radio show, hosted by Dave Etter, focusing on the needs of men married to serving military members, both men and women. Male Military Spouses are a small niche of military spouses, comprising of only 7%-8% of all military spouses. We feel left out, usually, at support functions - especially those designed with the spouses being identified as "wives"! We get cajoled at playgrounds where our kids play, from the mommies there who think we don't belong. We are proud SAHDs, who gave up our careers to follow our spouses as they dedicate thier lives to defend our country! Here, on this show, we come together and share beer recipes, diaper changing techniques, financial discoveries - manly things, for men! Airs Fridays at Noon CT, rated R for the cussing that can occur, and available for download (podcast) immediately following each show.

Noelle Pikus-Pace wears LDS Young Women necklace throughout Olympics
Noelle Pikus-Pace is an Olympic silver medalist and a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Although Pikus-Pace's comeback to compete in the skeleton event after retiring in 2010 warrants its own attention, the Olympic athlete has also made headlines for her positive attitude and love for her family.
But what many members of the LDS Church have also noticed is her willingness to display her faith. Throughout interviews before and during the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic Games, Pikus-Pace has not only spoken about her beliefs, but she has been spotted wearing the Young Womanhood Recognition medallion, which girls in the LDS Church can earn through the Personal Progress program, and the Young Women torch pendant, which is the Young Women logo.
After Pikus-Pace's last race, in which she took home the silver medal, Summer Sanders with NBC interviewed the Mormon athlete. Pikus-Pace sported the silver Young Women medallion and torch along with her racing suit. During the interview, Sanders became emotional as she spoke with Pikus-Pace about her success.
Later that night, Pikus-Pace would also wear the torch pendant and medallion around her neck as she stood on the Olympic podium and received her silver medal.
Back home in Utah, Pikus-Pace served as the Stake Young Women president, which kept her closely involved with the youths in her area, according to Mormon.org. In an interview with Deseret News' Amy Donaldson, Pikus-Pace offered advice to teenage members of the LDS Church.
"I hope the young women and the young men can see that it really is important, more than ever, to stand for something today, and to stand up for your values and beliefs," Pikus-Pace told Donaldson. "Even if you're the only one having to stand alone. There are always others who can help support you, and Heavenly Father is always right there by your side."
Pikus-Pace has also shared her beliefs on her Mormon.org profile.
"I know that Heavenly Father knows and loves each of us. I know in my own life he has never left my side. Before each season I pray and fast to know that the decision to compete is in accordance with his will," Pikus-Pace shared online.
"I know that we have a living prophet today. I love our Savior, Jesus Christ, and am so grateful for the Atonement and the blessing we have to use it in our lives. I am a Mormon because I know without a doubt that it is true."

"We Have Intervened to Stop a Massacre": Obama Defends the U.S.-Led Military Action in Libya
In his first major television address since ordering the bombing of Libya earlier this month, President Obama defended his decision, citing Libyan leader Col. Muammar Gaddafi's repeated human rights violations, an international consensus for interventions, the revolutions sweeping the Middle East and North Africa, and the threat of a massacre in the Libyan rebel stronghold in Benghazi.

A Debate on U.S. Military Intervention in Libya: Juan Cole v. Vijay Prashad
As President Obama defends the U.S.-led military attacks on Libya, we host a debate. University of Michigan Professor Juan Cole has just published an article titled "An Open Letter to the Left on Libya." Cole defends the use of military force to prevent a massacre in Benghazi and to aid the Libyan rebel movement in their liberation struggle. In opposition to U.S. intervention in Libya, University of Trinity Professor Vijay Prashad warns the United States has involved itself in a decades-long internal Libyan struggle while it ignores violent crackdowns by U.S.-backed governments in Bahrain, Yemen and other countries in the region.

Syria Detains Egyptian American Accused of Spying, Refuses to Release Details of Charges Against Mohamed Radwan
The death toll in Syria since protests erupted 10 days ago has passed 60, and according to some estimates, more than 280 people have been arrested, including an Egyptian American engineer named Mohamed Radwan. On Friday, Syrian state television aired what it called a "confession" by Radwan, in which he says he visited Israel in secret and took money in exchange for providing photographs and video about Syria. Radwan's family says the statement is false and must have resulted from coercion. We play an excerpt from an interview in February with Radwan while he participated in protests in Egypt, and we speak to his brother Tarek Radwan in Washington, D.C. [includes rush transcript]
"Shocked and Appalled": Sister of Death Row Prisoner Troy Davis Responds to Supreme Court Ruling
The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday refused to hear the appeal of well-known Georgia death row prisoner Troy Anthony Davis, likely setting the stage for Georgia to schedule his execution. Davis was convicted in the 1989 killing of off-duty white police officer, Mark MacPhail. Since then, seven of the nine non-police witnesses who fingered Davis have recanted their testimony. No physical evidence ties Davis to the crime scene. With his legal appeals exhausted, Davis's fate rests largely in the hands of Georgia's Board of Pardons and Parole, which could commute his death sentence and spare his life. We speak with Troy Davis's sister, Martina Correia. "No one wants to look at the actual innocence, and no one wants to look at the witness recantation as a real strong and viable part of this case," Correia says. "I think there needs to be a global mobilization about Troy's case." [includes rush transcript]

CHINA: Brands urged to uphold responsibility at Yue Yuen
By Michelle Russell | 24 April 2014
Thousands of workers began striking at the China shoe factory last week
Hong Kong-based advocacy group Globalization Monitor has issued an open letter to brands sourcing from the striking Yue Yuen factory in China - Adidas, Nike, and Timberland - demanding they uphold their corporate social responsibility.
Thousands of workers began striking at the Taiwanese-owned shoe factory last week. It is the second time this month that employees have protested over unpaid social insurance and housing funds and improper labour contracts.
Workers rejected management's latest offer earlier this week, pushing what has become the country's largest worker strike in recent history into its second week.
Employees at the Dongguan plant initially demanded back-pay for unpaid social insurance, but over the course of the last week workers have expanded their demands to include a 30% pay rise, a one-time payment based on seniority, or, in the case the factory does not meet other demands, monetary compensation for terminating the labor contract.
This, China Labor Watch (CLW) said, was due to management continuing to delay its reply and then delivering "an unsatisfying response" to workers.
Globalization Monitor says the dispute was triggered by a conspiracy between the Yue Yuen factory and the local government.
"The factory did not fully pay social insurance for the workers and the local government officials did not observe this unlawful practice. Workers also discovered the work contracts they are holding are not legally valid. They request the factory to pay back pension and housing fund arrears, re-sign valid work contract and raise the wage."
It added, however, that workers have ignored the role of international buyers in the dispute.
"Those buyers are much stronger and powerful. Yue Yuen supplies product for international big brands like Nike, Adidas, Reebok, Asics, New Balance, Puma, Converse, Salomon and Timberland. The workers have been producing shoes for these gigantic buyers and enterprises.
"Adidas and other international brands cannot ignore their corporate social responsibility in the labour dispute."
The labour rights group is suggesting Yue Yuen pays social insurance "immediately" for workers according to the actual wages they earn, and pay back the pensions in arrears over the years. In addition, it is calling for all of the factory's international buyers to share the worker social insurance payment with Yue Yuen.
"Perhaps the brands would say this problem is made by the government officials and the company and they are 'clean' from this. However, our experiences [tell us] brands are responsible and they covered compensation."
According to CLW, Adidas began moving equipment out of the production facility this week to be sent to another factory in Fujian Province. It urged the sporting giant to "rethink its choice" to pull out of Yue Yuen factory and "support a fair resolution between Yue Yuen and its workers".
Adidas, however, has said it is not pulling out of the factory and has no plans to do so. A Nike spokesperson said it was continuing to monitor the dialogue.

Take action against chronic pain
(NewsUSA) - According to the Institute of Medicine, pain costs America upwards of $630 billion every year in medical expenses and lost wages. Reports of pain in America are up, particularly for those living below the poverty line, who may have the hardest time accessing quality health care.
Lee Woodruff, journalist and co-founder of the Bob Woodruff Foundation ReMIND (www.remind.org), learned first-hand about the toll that pain can take on a family when her husband was critically injured in Iraq while working as a broadcast news correspondent. She also learned about the importance of taking an active role in her husband's care and speaking up.
"It's important to remember that you can be your best advocate when it comes to pain care. Learning as much as you can about your pain, and asking for help is a great way to start your advocacy journey. This isn't a time to be shy," said Mrs. Woodruff.
The percentage of Americans reporting chronic pain is on the rise. New data from the National Center for Health Statistics recently show that 28 percent of Americans experience low-back pain, an estimate that has increased steadily over the past decade.
According to pain specialist Donna Kalauokalani, MD, MPH, pain affects our lives in surprising ways. "Pain doesn't discriminate, but we know that our most vulnerable populations often have the hardest time accessing pain care," said Dr. Kalauokalani. "People with pain and their caregivers can lend a powerful voice to improving pain care through advocacy."
For people with pain, it's easy to get discouraged. But there is hope. Even now, the National Institutes of Health are working across agencies to set a pain research agenda. Advocates are working to advance recommendations put forth by the Institute of Medicine to help improve pain care through increased patient and provider education. Telling your story is just one way that you can take action and help improve care and access to care for people who live with pain. Learn more at www.IntheFaceofPain.com.

Amanda Knox Retrial Update: 'Foxy Knoxy' Bikes In Seattle As She Prepares For Conviction Appeal; Expected To Assert Her Innocence
By Staff Writer | March 19, 2014 03:10 PM EDT
The Amanda Knox retrial seemed to have quieted down a bit as "Foxy Knoxy" was seen biking around in her neighborhood in Seattle, Washington. She is expected to assert her innocence in the conviction appeal.

In a series of photographs published in MailOnline, the 26-year-old Amanda Know was wearing a rather bland outfit, perhaps in an effort not to stand out, from the beige hooded jacket, beige pants to the spectacles.
Amanda Knox visited a local Goodwill store, according to the website, which sells used goods donated by people. The proceeds will go to the training and education of poor beneficiaries.
In recent days, it's been pretty quiet in all fronts for any Amanda Knox retrial update. There's no news on when the former student accused of killing her roommate Meredith Kercher will appeal the conviction of the Italian Supreme Court that sentenced her to 28 years in prison, while her boyfriend and co-defendant, Raffaele Sollecito received a 25-year-sentence.
However, Ron Judd revealed in a column he wrote for Seattle Times on March 7 that Amanda Knox's retrial has caused a rift between the sister cities of Seattle and Perugia, Italy.
The first casualty was the "Sister Orca" sculpture by Marvin Oliver that was supposed to be unveiled in Perugia Park. Then the mayor of Seattle, Mike McGinn, changed the name of a pocket park near Capitol Hill from the original "Perugia Park" to "Summit Slope Park," the columnist wrote.
While Amanda Knox's retrial resulted to her conviction by Italy's highest court, "Foxy Knoxy" however found unlikely support from social media where users posted photos of themselves holding up signs declaring her innocence.
MailOnline reported that the photos from random individuals started going viral after Amanda Knox posted last month a black and white photograph with the sign that read: "Si Amo Innocenti," which is Italian for "we are innocent."
