Are you sure Warhol shot a canvas? I've never heard that story. There is of course the stack of 40 inch Marilyn paintings that were shot when Andy was shot in '68 (and those paintings command a HUGE premium because the bullet hole went right thru the center of her head and he repaired them but you can still see the mark, especially on the Turqoise one). He of course painted hundreds of gun paintings but I've never heard of him shooting a canvas and am interested if this is true as I'd be interested to see a photo of those canvases.

Man Shoots Painting, by jollysausage on Apr 11, 2008 20:14:40 GMT 1, Warhol never shot a painting. One of his junkie acolytes did. She was a hanger on with a photographer and when she asked Warhol if she could shoot the painting Warhol thought she wanted to photograph it so he gave her his blessing.

That's absolutely right.
Warhol himself was shot by Valerie Solanas.
PUREEVIL that's a cool story!

He shot one of his own paintings of a woman with a target on her arse thus completing the painting me thinks.

actually...
"Andy Warhol's lifelong obsession with self-portraiture and mortality, which started with his childhood indoctrination with Catholicism, was enhanced by three dangerous encounters in the 1960s. "In 1964, Dorothy Podber, dressed in a black leather motorcycle jacket, walked into the Factory, removed her white gloves, took out a pistol and shot at a stack of forty-inch-square Marilyn Monroe portraits and then left. The hole in the canvases (which were later referred to as "Shot Marilyns") were repaired, but the human trauma lasted...". In 1967, "a man arrived at the Factory and threatened Warhol and other members of his staff with a gun that he then shot against the wall." The most dangerous and life-threatening encounter came on June 3, 1968 when "the deranged Valerie Solanas entered the Factory and shot not at paintings or at the wall, but at Warhol himself, who was gravely injured and lucky to have survived."
