Summary |
"The socio-cultural impact of Andy Warhol painter, sculptor, printmaker, filmmaker, publisher, TV personality, socialite, graphic artist, collector, illustrator, rock impresario, photographer, model and author is incalculable. A pioneer in virtually every media in which he worked from his unmistakeable blotted-line advertising illustrations in the 1950s; to photography-based paintings of car wrecks and movie stars in the 1960s; to pre-Stonewall cult films that dared to explore sexually provocative subjects; to his re-invention of the celebrity magazine in the 1970s with Interview Andy Warhol also influenced such contemporary staples as reality TV, computer art and the rock-gig light show. As the inventor of the Polaroid selfie and master of the tweet-like short epithet (́ђبIt's so nice to be invited to your own house by the person who's renting it you feel at home and you' re still making money' ), Andy Warhol seems only to grow in cultural relevance in the twenty-first century"--Back cover |
