Warhol authenticity?

Ada Berkowitz, New York

Just who the fuck do those Andy Warhol authentication people think they are anyway (The Art Newspaper, No.140, October 2003, p.1;4)? Do you really think Warhol cared about the authenticity of most of the crap he put out? He was high as a kite most of the time. And, of course, he didn’t print all those silk screens himself. So what’s the big deal? I mean we’re not talking about a Leonardo here!
