Fame. Rejection. Revenge. One gunshot that changed art history forever. On June 3, 1968, pop art icon Andy Warhol was nearly killed when radical feminist writer Valerie Solanas walked into his Manhattan studio and opened fire. Warhol survived—but the attack left both him and the art world forever altered. What drove Solanas, the author of the SCUM Manifesto, to attempt murder? Was she a revolutionary or a deeply troubled woman seeking vengeance? And how did this moment expose the darker side of Warhol’s Factory scene? Join us as we explore the complex relationship between Solanas and Warhol, the shooting that shook the art world, and the lasting impact of this near-fatal encounter. 🎧 Listen now—because art and violence have a history. 📖 Book Recommendation: Valerie Solanas: The Defiant Life of the Woman Who Wrote SCUM (and Shot Andy Warhol)– Breanne Fahs 🔗 Support the show & get exclusive content: www.patreon.com/OnceUponaCrime 📢 Follow for more true crime: 🌐 www.truecrimepodcast.com #TrueCrimePodcast #AndyWarhol #ValerieSolanas #ArtCrime #CrimeHistory #OnceUponACrime
