    Robert Fry, senior lecturer of music history and literature at the Blair School of Music, Vanderbilt University, will address the influences of Andy Warhol on the New York rock and punk music scenes that burgeoned during the late sixties and into the seventies. Warhol’s frequent inclusion and borrowing of the sounds and images of popular music in his work and his direct involvement in the production and marketing of the Velvet Underground blurred the line between “high” and “low” art, liberated popular music from traditional industry control, and directly influenced the music, ideology, and image of the early rock and punk movements.
