Drawing on contemporary advertisements, comic strips, consumer products, and Hollywood's most famous faces, he proposed a radical reevaluation of what constituted artistic subject matter — making a Campbell's soup can and a Coca-Cola bottle as worthy of artistic status as any traditional still life. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFamously stating \"I want to be a machine,\" Warhol systematically reduced the presence of his own authorship, working with mass-production methods and dozens of assistants in a studio he dubbed the Factory.
