About Steve Balkin: An American painter well known for being a bit of a 'polyglot of the arts', and Warhol muse and associate. A photographer, graphic designer, abstract painter, former actor and merchant marine Younger Balkin was a working model who ran with the early Warhol crowd and worked at The Factory with Andy. Balkin is also very well known for his photography. Steve Balkin is also known for being the proprietor of the Upper East Side’s Burlington Antique Toy Shop until 2011 Steve Balkin is also one of 13 Warhol talents to be featured in "13 MOST BEAUTIFUL". Created Forty-five years after Andy Warhol’s seminal SCREEN TESTS, New York artist Conrad Ventur gathered together thirteen beautiful people from the Factory demimonde to recreate their earlier portraits. The new films follow Warhol’s minimalist design both in terms of framing and duration (a three minute shot projected back at a slightly slower speed), though the sense of “passing time” now registers in terms of decades rather than minutes.
