Warhol and Dylan pursued similar self-invention and scene mastery in 1960s New York.

Evidence

Self-invented geniuses with a sponge-like capacity to absorb ideas from those around them, Warhol and Dylan came from the hinterlands to conquer New York. Both were enigmatic personalities, prone to epigrams, fond of shades; each was the master of his scene. Best of all, their conflict—as befits two male deities—supposedly centered on a woman, Edie Sedgwick. — J. Hoberman, Everything Is Now, 749
