Modern Art Response

The video "This is Modern Art" showed me a new way to look at art not by just looking at the paintings, but describing the story behind each of the artists and why they may have painted the way they did. Each of the artist can be related to in ways of emotion and the way they emphasized it through their paintings. I was more interested in Pullock because he was an angry and depressed man and took out his frustration through painting. His art was very interesting to me somehow in a way i can not explain. Warhol was weird to me by the paintings of death. Although it was something to look at, its never something id want to look at. I like his paintings of color and how he drew in multiples.
1) Why did Warhol draw his paintings in multiples?
2) What was it that really angered Pullock and why was he so bitter?
3) WHy does "modern art" have to be just modern?
4) What makes a painting unique? Even if its nothing to it?
5) If everything is art, why are so many artists criticized by what they do?
