  • (Note: This study was written and published before the terrible Chris Chan revelations of July 30, 2021.)A CRITICAL CONFRONTATION. What can we learn by comparing two of the most unique cultural figures in living memory?Andy Warhol and Chris Chan: Both became famous while producing artwork that was often met with derision. Both became the focus of intense interest and curiosity. Their indelible personalities have provoked fascination, laughter, and outrage. In spite of their strangeness--or because of it--they reflect particularly pertinent aspects of the world around them. They are thought of as the oddest of oddities, and yet they represent broad trends of our society as a whole.From bright Pop Art to sordid underground films, Andy Warhol portrayed an America that was both familiar and avant-garde. He carried a tape recorder everywhere and prophesized that in the future everyone would be famous just for being themselves. Several decades later, Chris Chan embodies Warhol's dream as it turns ever more nightmarish. Thanks to the internet, Chris became known worldwide and was then constantly observed, documented, scrutinized, and subjected to widespread insult and analysis.Warhol worked to legitimize popular culture by giving it the prestige of high art. More recent generations have grown up breathing pop culture as if it were air: just as ubiquitous and just as seemingly vital. People today--young at heart--continue playing video games and collecting toys into adulthood, treating their favorite entertainment franchises like quasi religions. More than anyone else, Chris Chan demonstrates the excesses of this phenomenon.This comprehensive study investigates the parallels and divergences between Warhol and Chris Chan, both of whom can be seen as bellwethers of cultural shifts. The two are compared in terms of how they relate to the following elements--from the fundamentals of life to the themes of our time:● Names & Words● Collecting & Hoarding● Consumerism● Technology & Media● Women . . . Sex . Transgenderism . . Femdom● Fame: Mythologies of Self & Multiverse● RecordingA wide spectrum of knowledge is painstakingly drawn upon to analyze our two subjects from all angles. References and points of comparison are made to elements of:● Art history● Classic film● Modernist literature● Philosophy (from Plato to the postmodern)● Popular music● Psychology (especially psychoanalysis)● Internet meme cultureThrough pathos and ridiculousness, in an uncertain world that's constantly changing, we trace the human spirit as it passes from the golden age of Americana... through the high Warholian era... and now into social media squalor.(Disclaimers: 1. Pronouns (stress sigh)--often the subject of controversy and tedium in recent years--are used responsibly, with respect to legalities, and in hopes of minimizing some inevitable distraction. 2. Though the author takes a critical and often negative view of Chris Chan, Chris Chan generally approved of the study after it was published. 3. Chris Chan is in no way financially connected to this project.)
