This infamous Che Guevara painting is
actually a forgery created by Gerard Malanga (who was in need of money)
and sold to a gallery in Rome. When Warhol heard of the fraud, he
“authenticated” the fake, provided that all the money from sales went to
him.

“It’s hard to be creative and it’s also hard not to think what you do
is creative or hard not to be called creative because everybody is
always talking about that and individuality. Everybody’s always
creative. And it is so funny when you say things aren’t, like the shoe I
would draw for an advertisement was called a ‘creation’, but the
drawing of it was not. There are millions of actors. They’re all
pretty good. And how many painters are there? Millions of painters and
all pretty good. How can you say one style is better then another. You
ought to be able to be an Abstract-expressionist next week, or a Pop artist, or a realist, without feeling you’re given up something.”
