> Didn't the article say the Warhol curators actually filed the suit first?
Unless Andy Warhol’s genetically sequenced AI brain is actively making decisions for his estate, I’m not sure this is relevant to the question of what Andy Warhol himself would’ve done.
- giantg2 4y agoNo... but if you follow the context of the comments, it does question the assumption the other commenter made that the other party was the one suing.
- culturestate 4y agoI don't really understand the point you're trying to make here. The author of this piece is essentially saying "we don't know what Andy Warhol would've done if the roles were reversed," which is unassailably true since he was dead for over 30 years before this lawsuit was filed and, to my knowledge, never initiated any similar lawsuits of his own during his life. Regardless of which party moved first, neither party is Andy Warhol and so the original question remains impossible to answer.
- giantg2 4y agoSeems like a stupid thing to make an article about if it's really as narrow as "we don't know what Andy Warhol would've done if the roles were reversed,". And if we're saying there's no room for discussing the questions surrounding the topic. Also seems like a pretty poor piece if that's the point and they don't investigate or mention any history, like the Elaine Sturtevant stuff.
