Episode 61: Andy Warhol: When The Factory Meets Studio 54
Manage episode 382645347 series 2829476
Andy Warhol once said, “The key of the success of Studio 54 is that it's a dictatorship at the door and a democracy on the dance floor.” We begin this episode with Steve Rubell and Ian Schrager on the evening of April 26, 1977 as they open the doors to Studio 54, smack-dab in the middle of the glitter and grime in and around Midtown Manhattan. We discuss Warhol moving from being the darling of academic art nerds to mainstream provocateur and celebrity worshiper, bringing his scene with him.
