n a work of great wisdom and insight, art critic and philosopher Arthur Danto delivers a compact, masterful tour of Andy Warhol's personal, artistic, and philosophical transformations. Danto traces the evolution of the pop artist, including his early reception, relationships with artists such as Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg, and the Factory phenomenon. He offers close readings of individual Warhol works, including their social context and philosophical dimensions, key differences with predecessors such as Marcel Duchamp, and parallels with successors like Jeff Koons. Danto brings to bear encyclopedic knowledge of Warhol's time and shows us Warhol as an endlessly multidimensional figure--artist, political activist, filmmaker, writer, philosopher--who retains permanent residence in our national imagination.Danto suggests that "what makes him an American icon is that his subject matter is always something that the ordinary American understands: everything, or nearly everything he made art out of came straight out of the daily lives of very ordinary Americans. . . . The tastes and values of ordinary persons all at once were inseparable from advanced art."
Review:
"This valuable work of critical cultural analysis reveals aspects of Warhol so far uncovered an unexplored that will appeal widely to the interested generalist as well as to scholars of contemporary art, American culture and aesthetics."
Publishers Weekly, 08/17/2009
Review:"Arthur C. Danto, philosopher and art critic, takes Andy Warhol very seriously as an artist, activist, filmmaker, critic of pop and high culture, and celebrity icon. Neither a memoir of the philosopher nor a biography of his subject, this small and provocative work is 'a study of what makes Warhol so fascinating an artist from a philosophical perspective.' "
Barbara Fisher, Boston Globe, 10/25/2009
