From warholstars.org:
"Ultra Violet opened an art studio in Nice in 1990, creating a movement called "L'Ultratique, publishing two manifestos in the early nineties. Her work was included in the Audart exhibition commemorating the tenth anniversary of Warhol's death."

She also wrote Famous for 15 Minutes: My Years With Andy Warhol in 1990.

One WEHT reader reported that Ultra Violet will be teaching at her university but did not respond when asked for further details (like which university or what courses)
