Archive on 4 - When Bailey Met Warhol

Jerry Hall, formerly one of Andy Warhol's muses, interviews photographer David Bailey about his relationship to the pop artist and tells the story of the infamous television documentary Bailey made about Warhol in 1973. Temporarily censored in the UK, it caused the greatest national public row over art and censorship since the trial over the publication of Lady Chatterley's Lover. The relationship between Bailey and Warhol was also an encounter of styles: the visual cool of 1960s London met the playful irony of the New York art scene, with Bailey's East End smarts sometimes thwarted by Warhol's elusive musings and those of his Factory acolytes.
