He was regarded as an ''enfant terrible'' for his provocative work and statements (he delegated the painting of many of his works to his assistants). He was also a notable experimental film-maker, directing such films as ''Trash'', ''Heat'', ''Andy Warhol's Frankenstein'' and ''Andy Warhol's Dracula''.
