Warhol TV

The Andy Warhol Museum has announced the launch of The Warhol TV, a new streaming platform that provides viewers the opportunity to view free, unique museum content as well as to rent a growing selection of Warhol’s more than 400 films and over 2,500 videos from the museum’s expansive collection. Available online at stream.warhol.org, as well as via dedicated iPhone, Apple TV, Android and Roku app.

“At The Warhol we are frequently asked how Andy would have responded to today’s culture of social media and YouTube personalities, where everyone truly does experience their fifteen minutes of fame”, explains The Warhol’s Director Patrick Moore, “and we believe that he would found his own platform. Our goal is that The Warhol TV embodies the spirit and vision of Warhol if he were provided with today’s technological resources.”

Content currently available on The Warhol TV includes rarely seen films created by Warhol, which are available to stream for the first time, and include commentary by museum staff members as well as contemporary filmmakers and experts like Gus Van Zant and Todd Haynes, as well as Capturing Creativity, a new interview series with creators developed and produced by the museum in partnership with No More Rulers, a platform representing empowerment, respect and progression in the art world; Silver Studio Sessions, which feature musical performances; and a selection of screen tests created by museum visitors. Registration is free and the films are available for a three-day rental for $15, with new content added quarterly.

AI-Generated Andy Warhol to Narrate New Netflix Documentary Series

Continuing a trend that has been controversial among filmmakers, a new Andy Warhol documentary series, coming to Netflix next month, will resurrect the Pop artist using artificial intelligence. In the show, Warhol can be heard reading from his diaries. That voice, however, is not the artist’s own but rather the product of AI made to sound like him.

Andrew Rossi, who created the series, titled The Andy Warhol Diaries, undertook this unusual measure with the Andy Warhol Foundation’s permission, according to a trailer released by Netflix on Wednesday. The series also portrays the AI-generated narration as something Warhol himself would’ve wanted.

“I went down to the office because they are making a robot of me,” an AI-generated Warhol says in the trailer, referring to a mechanical prototype made in 1982 that could be fitted with a prosthetic resembling his face.

The Andy Warhol Diaries is the latest grand survey for the artist, who was the subject of a nearly-1,000-page biography by Blake Gopnik in 2020 and a 350-work Whitney Museum retrospective in 2018. The show is set to feature interviews with artists such as John Waters and Glenn Ligon, dealers Larry Gagosian and Jeffrey Deitch, and curator Donna de Salvo, who organized the 2018 Whitney show.

Filmmakers are relying more frequently on AI in blockbuster documentaries as of late. Last year, AI was used to recreate Anthony Bourdain’s voice for Roadrunner and to reconstruct footage of the Beatles producing their album Let It Be for the three-part series Get Back. Though at times technically impressive, this usage of AI has provoked debate about the ethics of utilizing the technology to enliven dead figures and generated questions about the truth-telling quality commonly associated with documentary filmmaking. source
