10 commercials made by famous directors


From David Lynch to Ridley Scott: 10 commercials made by famous directors


It was Andy Warhol who said, “Being good in business is the most fascinating kind of art. Making money is art and working is art and good business is the best art.” This was an opinion propagated in a rather more applied sense by one of his New York contemporaries Keith Haring, who said, “If commercialism is putting my art on a shirt so that a kid who can’t afford a $30,000 painting can buy one then I’m all for it.” In a strange way, an advert to a director is like a T-shirt to a painter, in the most ambiguous way possible it both literally and figuratively works as a shop front.
