To celebrate the publication of The Films of Andy Warhol Catalogue Raisonné, 1963–1965, Volume 2, this program illuminates Andy Warhol’s practice as a filmmaker, exploring the relationship between his films and his work in other media, and the importance of his films to twentieth-century art history. John G. Hanhardt, general editor of The Films of Andy Warhol Catalogue Raisonné, 1963–1965, and former Curator and Head of Film and Video at the Whitney, will be joined by film scholar Bruce Jenkins and filmmaker Tom Kalin, contributors to the catalogue raisonné, to speak about the history of Warhol’s engagement with cinema and to share insights into why Warhol’s films have been influential for generations of artists while also remaining largely unknown until now.

Hope you enjoy this recording of the December 2021 book launch event for Volume 2 of the Warhol Film Catalogue Raisonné. In the conversation between Tom Kalin and me, there are likely a few errors that emerge. One in particular, however, needs to be corrected: there are 472 Screen Tests, not 590 (or whatever goofy number I said). And, regrettably the surprise ending I promised—a screening of a rare single roll from Warhol's Batman Dracula—is not included here. Cheers!
