Paper Summary:

This is a study of Andy Warhol's portraits and the issues that they raise about celebrity and identity. In his portraits of celebrities, their vacant stares and stock poses communicate to the viewer the intractability of representing the 'real self'. In his self-portraits, the distortion of color and form, combined with the generic head-on-black-background format makes the subject of the portrait relatively unimportant, subsumed by art.
