  • so good

  • What the fuck is this shit? I might as well TAKE A SHIT since blowjobs films can be famous. Shit = Art, since you all wan't to know if I'm taking a worthington jet or if it splashes on my balls

  • i got 10 bucks down that andy warhol was the one giving the guy fellatio.

  • Is Andy Warhol considered a role model by gays because they don't know about Walt Whitman, Aaron Copland or Truman Capote, or he is just a role model to gays who are ugly, insecure and self-centered?

  • не вижу бабу... скорее всего это mastr-job... гг... ;-D

  • I don't understand why people find this vid so fascinating it's dull as hell. Maybe he's getting a blowjob maybe he's not who gives a fuck? The suspense isn't killing me. It's like a mockery of people's intelligence. If this is art then I'm going to go film my face while I take a shit. Or am I REALLY shitting? Oh the suspense...

  • andy's work is often criticised as being very cold and emotionless, but this movie is a evokes a mixture of feelings and uncertainty. the length of this video makes me feel increasingly unconfortable near the end.

  • lol...who really uses the word ergo?

  • @joanieinthecity lol...no shit. Douchebags trying to sound smart?

  • @joanieinthecity lol...no shit. Douchebags trying to sound smart?

  • Art exsists to inflame the imagination, and to evoke a reaction, whether you like this film or not, it will certainly evoke a reaction.

  • This make me remember you...

    Your face, your pleasure

    This is art... This is glory

  • i hate it when people mock andy warhol, he was a genius, and will be remembered forever, while the people who mock him will die and be forgoten. so sucksssssssss :P

  • ANdy Warhol was a fag hence why we is filming this.

  • @RouteMask ... so? Being gay gives you a whole different outlook on the world. Gays look at things from a different prospective often from the outside looking in. That is why many are great artists.In a few years it will be accepted and maybe people like you won't just look at someone just as a fag.

  • @EutuveX I was replying to a negative remark about gays... if you will scroll down and read what I replied to maybe you will understand. What I mean is gays often look at the world very differently. If you're not gay, or don't know anybody that is or ever talked to a gay person... than I would expect you to ever understand.

  • this is so fucking gay. warhol was the one giving him head? lol.

  • Warhol made modern art obvious :-(

  • "Warhol does not dictate meaning, and that is why it is art. "

    that's one of the dumbest arguments ever. don't take it personally, but think about it. if i take a shit in a piece of paper, i'm not dictating meaning. so is it art? of course not. but still, there you have it: a piece of paper full of shit in it. just like this movie. or anything warhol has ever done (ok, i must admit vinyl is pretty good).

  • In the book Porn Studies ed. Linda Williams, there is a great article called "Andy Warhol's Blow Job: Toward the Recognition of a Pornagraphic Avant-garde" by Ara Osterweil. Osterweil talks about the importance of the effect on audience. He frustrates the audience by denying showing the phallic, the face clearly, the climax, or real explicitness despite the title. apparently some people went nuts when they watched this in the 60s

  • Andy is a genie.

  • Comment removed

  • You can not see it as art because you are looking at it from a modernist perspective. This is a postmodern work, meaning it blurs the line between "high" and "low" art as well as leaving a pluralistic meaning behind. In that silent man you can see your desires and fears, or you can see nothing. Warhol does not dictate meaning, and that is why it is art.

  • @Crazyhorsemonkyman

    you do realise that is the same thing that modernist work does?

  • I don't understand how in any way shape or form this is art. I am an artist myself, but very young. It seems like a lot of people just see weird things and try too hard to analyze it which suddenly makes it some great work of art. This video means absolutely nothing to me. Not to be rude, I know a lot of you adore Andy Warhol, but help me understand.

  • There is nothing to understand, Andy warhol is the epitome of superficial, garbage taking advantage of consumerism. just as trends get old, so does warhol. He's nothing special, and never claimed to be an artist or anything special. he mocked those who admired him.

  • @firexxwhispers look up the documentary of andy warhol here on youtube. you would probably like his early work and illustrations. his later work was much more focused on concept than what it actually looked like.

  • The man is blue.

  • RIP Andy

  • and deveren is a gorgeous man.

  • That was really beautiful.

  • I just saw this piece at the ANDY WARHOL Other Voices, Other Rooms exhibit at the Wexner Center for the Arts in Columbus, Ohio. I love how this piece focuses only on the mans face, displaying the emotion in the act instead of the actual sexual action. I've really come to appreciate Andy Warhol.

  • he got a blow job from 5 guys!! o_o

  • For all of you who through ignorance, youth or both don't understand why Warhol and woks of his such as this are important need only reflect that more than 40 years later, people are still reacting to the work, whether it be praise or outrage. Who will be talking about you 40 years from now? Poor kiddies... guess you had to be there! Now go bury your head in Facebook like good little lemmings...

  • hahaha Andy's the greatest, I wish i had been there.

  • Shaddup. You are correct, but you come across as an aging pretentious fuckhead. If you have the keenness of mind to truly appreciate Warhol and other great artists, then lemming metaphors are below you.

  • @pen64 damn, quite a mouthload, pen. while i am in total awe of the pale guy's work, i question the anger in your post. wtf and who are you?

  • WTF is dis!

  • this is art

    but i guess you just don't understand it

  • how is filming a guy getting a blowjob art?

  • art is not just all about painting pictures and creating statues etc

    this makes people think, and see things in a new light

    it makes people wonder what the artist's intention were and what he's try to tell us

    so andy wasn't as talented painter such as leonardo da vinci or vermeer, but that does not mean he is still one of the greats

    he just portrayed his ideas and imaginations through more modern ways such as printing or media

  • Would you consider Emming an artist? what of her Bed? Famous or not is it art? How about Marcel Duchamp's Urinal? Or Even Damien Hirst's art.

  • Haven't any of you seen Salvador Dali's 'The Great Masterbator'?

  • warhol doesnt make people think, that's the point of his products. it's just pleasing to the eye.

  • @kenyadigthemusic his work has evoked intense controversy and divided opinions among art critics and the common public alike from the very moment he became popular; to claim his work doesn't make people think discounts the very reason he is so popular. alot of people think his work is shit. i personally prefer his early career but he did push the boundaries of commercial art and fine art. to the limit, so i think he deserves recognition for that.

  • its true that andy warhol doesn't match everyone's taste but don't deny that this is art when 40 years later, people are still talkinga and debating about him

  • was***

  • warhol is a flaming homosexual...so how about them steelers...

  • Actually he was an asexual...he didn't have sex at all

  • no actually he did have sex, throughout his life, but he wasnt as promiscuous as some of the people he associated with

  • @SumLuv somewhere i read that he said sex was the biggest let down and overhyped thing in the world. i think he was bisexual in the sense that he was willing to have sex with either gender, but would not go out of his way to do so.

  • @MicahBuzan he was asexual .. my art teacher said that

  • @Lina0David andy warhol considered himself asexual..but later decided that if he had to choose between sexes he would be gay. not long before he died, he admitted that he was, in fact, gay.

  • Uh.

    Andy Warhol is dead.

  • LOL

  • 0.o

  • The Hayward Gallery are running a video competition through YouTube.

    Go to the group 15secondsoffame and upload your videos!

    Further information on the group page.

  • I wonder if most of you know who gave him the blow-job?

  • Various people gave the man a blow-job.

  • I'm not one for Andy Warhol....

  • the sequel 'rim job' is coming out soon

  • hahahahha!

  • I can't believe I'm the first person to comment on how unbelievably pretty he is...

  • we watched this in my experimental film class this morning, and that's all my friend and i could think about. he's beautiful

  • soooo somebody paid to see this once???

  • Yeah, can you believe how many idiots there are in this world? Then again, people think Paris Hilton has some kind of relevance.

  • Andy was genius, but I'd rather watch porn.

  • Pure Warhol Genius !

  • there's a strange, morbid fascination involved..

    i knew it wasnt going to change at all, but i kept watching..

  • there's really not a reason for it to be fake, now is there?

  • I think that this piece is awesome. It's ambivolent. Its mocking itself, and looking at something so natural, yet taboo as a "blow job". It doesn't matter at all if he's actually getting a blow job or not, it's your reaction to the piece that makes it art.

    Andy Warhol is awesome.

  • If I film myself sitting on a toilet and making constipated faces at you, and you're wanting to decipher whether or not I'm taking a shit, does that make it art too? Hell, maybe that's what I should do. Do a video response to Andy Warhol's blow job by having one called "Dump" and you can watch my facial expressions. Did I take a laxative or am I constipated? Do I feel relief at being mid way a gigantic turd or is it me wiping my ass.

    BRILLIANT! You'll say. So Po' Mo'!

  • actually, that would be pretty brilliant.

  • Man, I also thought of doing that,but mine would be called "Crap job"

  • dude i dont understand this film at all, and i dont know why you seem to care

  • He is getting a hummer thats why

  • so what

  • Well, its an experimental piece, and plus, its to point out that everyone seems to look like they're being tortured if video taped from the shoulders up while having an orgasm.

  • I know this is classic art, but that was the most boring damn thing I have ever seen.

  • Agreed. Anfy Warhol was nothing but a charlatan who laughed at the people who thought him an artist. This is very true actually... he got his groupies to explain his work for him. He didn't really think much of it, it was the people around him that gave it all kinds of meaning and so forth. Andy Warhol was a goof. And an evil goof at that.

  • thats the point of warhols work... is art becuase is not art, is kinda anti-art, if you dont like warhol its ok, but many others think that is a genius and its ok too

  • Then my point remains. Andy Warhol himself didn't think much of his work. BRAINLESS, DRONE, GROUPIES did. Furthermore to go on about how this is some kind of fascinating, erotic, art piece is none sense. You can see this sort of thing anywhere. Does that decree it art? It's like obnoxious 15 year olds who write their feelings in stanzas and call it poetry. Andy Warhol and the people are him are just "The Emperor's New Clothes" and they never had any to begin with.

  • In the end art it is us who have to decide wether somthing is art or not. I is all matter of wether u relate to something or not

  • @Qrstnce his early work is more traditional. he was a brilliant illustrator. he was an artist since he was a child. you have to give credit to the guy for walking the fine line between art and commercial nonsense; not too many other artsists had the balls to do that. i'm not saying he was a genius, but the man was damn intellegent, if not a bit manipulative.

  • so that guy in the movie never told anyone what really happened?

  • The real genius of this work is that the audience is given an expectation going in simply based on the title. There is NO WAY of knowing what is going on outside of the frame. Ergo, the viewer PRESUMES what is happening, when in REALITY all they see is a face. ANYTHING or NOTHING is happening, but all expectations are met by showing nothing.

  • @forloveoffilm what was the title the audience given? what else would he be doing, taking the longest pee of his life, or having an 8 min nervous breakdown..or waiting for a bus ?

  • @proent look it up on wikipedia! its basically true

  • He climaxes around 5:45

  • wääääääääh

  • he didnt show the sexual act it self... he actually hired 5 boys to give the actor the blow job

  • I love Andy and his work...but whu would he make a film like this...plz reply!!

  • It was fascinating for him to show a face of a person during the act of fellatio but not to show the sexual act itself. That's his genius, or maybe you can call it madness...

  • This may come across as blasphemy, but has anyone put this to music? I randomly watched this while listening to David Bowie's Sweet thing/Candidate/Sweet thing Reprise and fits eerily well. Not perfectly, but it's interesting all the same to see it with a different perspective.

  • That sounds like something a pedophile would say. Why don't you take a seat right there?

  • Thank you, YOU TUBE for putting this on the internet. I read about this movie and tried but failed to ever see it. It's not LONSOME COWBOYS, but it's pretty interesting.

  • fantastic

  • He takes too long.

  • Interesting short film with the wrong title. This film really doesn't need a title.

    I met Andy back in the 1970's...yes, he was very different. Quite shy in public. One could tell that he was always sizing up certain guys. Me, being one of those people.

  • The original guy was supposed to be Charles Rydell but he backed out saying to Warhol that he thought he was joking when he said 5 guys would blow him while he filmed. Devern Bookwalter is credited as the guy with Willard Maas as the offscreen actor who blows him. The film suggests he may be acting or he may be getting a real blow job. As the voyeur, you decide.

  • blow job

    great video

    the guy at this video gets a blow job of 10 different guys ^^

  • aaaaactually 5

  • fucking boring

  • I'm not so sure it would be considered art if this film was shot by any else (who would never become famous). But, I do realize what is and is not art is entirely subjective.

  • oNE MAN THEE BASIC COLORS OF BLACK HE WASNT

    SPACE HE WAS A HUMAN PROJECTOER PERFECT.

  • "That's not art it's softcore porn."

    Prove it.

  • a male face is softcore porn? wtf??

  • (I was replying to nomadicsky's comment on page 2 from 4 weeks ago, hence the quotation marks.)

  • my bad ;-)

  • Whats the difference

  • It wasn't five different guys. They were suppose to be five different guys but there was some screw up the day it was filmed so he had to get Willard Maas to give the guy head. Maas used to hang out at the factory I guess.

    Anyway Warhol was a nut

  • It's amazing how it can be so hot without actually showing anything...

  • SORRY THS A ACCIDENT i BELEIVE WHAT YOU SAY,GENOIUES

  • i think the guys name is deveren bookwalter.

  • it's tom baker getting head, he was a a drinking buddy of jim morrison

  • naaah its bookwalter

  • dude, he sees the world differently than you, so that makes it bad art? no of course not. his work is strange but its meant to make you think

  • I think anyone who is blessed with the ability to use their mind can be blown away by this,.

  • 5 diferent guys.i never rad that before.where ddi this info come from, thanks.always curious about the idea - finished product is not so important Warhol was doing first in art and enlargening the content and issues of contemp art.Made everything possible .More important than so many othesr at the time who only painted or scuplted or shot photos .this man is iconic like picasso others here who dont agree simply don't know .GET INFORMED .

  • who was the one doing it?!

  • it was some old guy.yes,i'm serious.

  • I think he looks sort of ashamed at the end, but then this brezze goes over his face that pretty much says he ignored his shame. It's a good film.

  • No, he's BEING sucked.

  • yes he his, by willard maas, a filmmaker.. and the guy is DeVeren Bookwalter

  • lovely

  • i just like blow jobs

  • Fantastic. (:

  • i love the part when he lights and smokes the cigarette. it makes me wonder what is going through his mind.

  • get an education

  • he got you thinking and talking more than 40 yrs after,thats how this is art

  • Why the hell is his orgasm edited out of this? That totally defeats the purpose of the film.

  • i dont believe the original is actually edited im sure to make it 'you tube' safe it had to be.

  • The actual video is just this, 35 minutes of a mans face as he gets a blow job from like 5 different guys. Andy had somone else arranged for it but the person thought it was a joke and didnt show up, so he "picked somone up from around the studio" and that guy on the vid got head.

  • IT MAKES YOU THINK THEREFOR ITS ART.

    ass. pssshh.

  • well it makes me think but maybe you just lack mental capacity.

  • What does it make you think about. "Hey, that guys getting a blowjob, i should go and get porn!", or "That guys eating a mushroom, I should go and buy some!" I WILL admit that I lack the mental capacity for Robert Indiana eating a mushroom, 8 Hours of John Diorno sleeping, or some guy getting a blowjob makes me think.

  • basically andy warhols films make you stop and think and see things in life u have seen many times before but don't really think about it, eating, having their haircut.. it's like taking a photo and focusing on one thing in the image even though there was alot going on in the background. I can't help but like you though your arguements are sound.

  • did you say haircut? I think you mean blowjob. 2 different things. Way, way, different. hahaha.

  • Andy Warhol is such an ass. How is 8 hours of the ESB, some guy getting a blowjob, and a guy eating a mushroom art?

  • What the fuck sort of name is "Bacofishtaco". That name tells me that when you take the piss out of an artist because you can't APPRECIATE his work, despite the fact that he basically defined pop art AND anything that came out of the sixties and seventies, It's because you lack the intelligence or maturity to attribute some ACTUAL feedback. It's because you don't know WHY it isn't art, hence you don't elaborate. Try and give some reasoning, honey-bunch.

  • Ok, I get it. So if i change my name to iappreciateart or something like that means something about me. don't judge me by the goddamn name i chose. Your name "DBenterprises". Does DB stand for Database? Dead Body? Daytona Beach?

  • ok, good concept, i just think as a film maker so much more couldve have been done with the idea. not dissing as my next film is going to be taking much inspiration from him, but i do think people say how amazing it is to seem 'arty' and fit into their category

  • i love how the star of blowjob was in a clint eastwood movie or something after. ahah. great starting role, yes?

  • Dooooooooood! Some one gave me this on VHS when i was in LA one year. It is so fun to watch when stoned. Reguardless of what the moronic youths who come on here to talk trash say Warhol was a genius and Blow Job has more asthetic value than half the crap that passes for art today.

  • I think that's one of the best Warhol's movies. In my opinion, he was the last great artist in the world. The real great art died with him.

  • totally. i always wondered why Andy was never s'AIN'Ted by the Church of the Sub-Genius.

  • great art existed before him, and real great art has yet to come...

  • wow... it leaves SO MUCH to the imagination

  • dude what the fuck is your problem? this isnt meant to be porn its a silent film made by andy warhol. sure he made this film just because it was easy to do but thats his style if you cant understand that you have no right to complain about it.

  • You are such a fucking moron

  • Was this actually a real blowjob or just acting?

  • blow job, or else it wouldn't serve the purpose it was made for.

  • The king of stark minimalism. No color, no sound, no nudity or 'pornography' and it's still one of the most erotic films ever shot (even with the 'climax' edited out).
