They didn't touch much on his early years or even his lifestyle, so not many 'AS' clues - but if you read any of his biogs... Like most modern artists it's hard sometimes to see what's **** and what's shinola, but for the most part AW shines out, IMO, as a true original. So many of the peeps now regarded as avant garde seem to just be copiests, iykwim, of ideas and concepts he had/developed almost half a century ago.
