about Warhol

From what I've seen by Andy Warhol I'm most interested about his work on film, I did some research on writings about his films and I found a very nice sentence from Wayne Koestenbaum:
'The eye, not having a narrative to lead it, and not having camera movements and quick editing to manipulate what it sees, may tour the film frame as if it were unmoving, and may enjoy or puzzle over stray pieces of what the frame contains, without fear that the camera will shift angle and deprive the eye of its present feast.'

Warhol said that the point of his film Empire was "to see time go by"
