Andy Warhol: he got the picture – Telegraph

From 1976 until his death, 11 years later, he took at least one roll of black-and-white film every day. Colour, he said, was ‘too expensive’, and it didn’t have the paparazzi feeling he liked. Night after night, he’d set out for his round of art openings, movie premieres, book parties, dinners and discos, his jacket pockets stuffed with extra rolls of film and batteries. ‘It’s work,’ he would say, of both his party-going and his picture-taking.
