Andy Warhol. Love. Sex, and Desire

Detailní popis produktu

This book features over 300 of Warhol's seductive drawings, showcasing his effortless style, fascination with the male form, droll humor, and ironic detachment. These rarely seen risqué renderings highlight the artist's early talent and set the stage for his later iconic Pop Art works.

Originally exhibited in 1956, these drawings were intended for publication as a book, but due to the societal attitudes of the time, this project was never realized. Now, the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts has brought this vision to life with a comprehensive book featuring selected images chosen by the foundation.

With essays by Warhol biographer Blake Gopnik and art critic Drew Zeiba, as well as poems by renowned poets, this book offers a deeper look into Warhol's early work and the themes present in his drawings.

The drawings themselves are reminiscent of Cocteau and Matisse, with a unique touch of Warhol's own voyeuristic style and droll humor. This book is a must-have for any Warhol fan or art enthusiast looking to explore the artist's early exploration of desire and beauty.
