Andy Warhol - 2025 ACF Fall

Tossup

This artist’s mother wrote captions such as “to shoe or not to shoe” in a series of shoe drawings whose title riffs on a Proust novel. This artist applied copper paint then urinated (10[1])on a (10[1])canvas (10[10])to create (10[2]-5[1])his (10[2])Oxidation (10[3])Paintings, (10[7])one of which (10[2])depicts (10[2]-5[1])his mentee (10[3])Jean-Michel Basquiat. (10[7]-5[2])A silver car (10[1])crash (10[1]-5[1])is (10[1])part of (10[1]-5[1])this (10[1])artist’s (10[5]-5[1])Death and (10[2])Disaster (10[1])Series. (10[5])At the Ferus Gallery, (10[1])this artist debuted a series (10[1])of paintings whose (10[1])“Pepper Pot” entry has a torn label. (10[1])This artist, who coined the (10[2])“15 Minutes of Fame,” (10[10])created (10[4])a (10[5])“Diptych” (10[8])of (10[1])an actress (10[1])and (10[1])several (10[2])other (10[1])silkscreens (10[7])in his (10[1])Manhattan (10[3])studio, (10[1])the Factory. (10[4]-5[1])For 10 points, (10[3])name this Pop artist of Campbell’s soup cans. (10[2])■END■ (10[7])
