More Smelly Stuff From the House of Warhol
Andy Warhol’s fifteen minutes of fame seem to have no end in site. In another attempt to make money for the Warhol Foundation, a grant/charitable program for the creative arts founded by Andy, the group has once again sold his rights to the corporate devil Andy was so fond of.
I often wonder why so much product comes out bearing Warhol’s name and art work. Levi’s, Gap, Burton snowboards, Bloomingdales, Bond No. 9 all seem to own a little piece of the artist who is his day was so anti-consumerist that such “partnerships” would have probably turned him completely off to art, forcing him to shack up in some abandoned trailer in upstate NY. Just Andy, his extensive collection of wigs, and a banana.
Well if you’re the type that’s interested in the next Warhol collaboration (this dude has more after death collabs than Biggie and Tupac combined) here it is.
Andy Warhol Union Square for Bond No. 9.
The new scent is a floral that Bond describes as both sweet and cool. It’s an energetic scent with notes of lily of the valley, blue freesia, golden amber, white birch wood and animal musk. It’s coming out March 15th and will cost about as much as 135 cans of tomato soup.
