Beautifully assembled with insightful essays and text and featuring not only Warhol's most famous iconic works, but also drawings dating back to the 1940s, plus his 'Disaster' series of paintings and later works based on da Vinci's "Last Supper." Warhol's intellectually stimulating and visually thrilling blend of pop culture and fine art emerged from his work as a commercial illustrator in the early 1960s and changed the art world forever. His work inspired new perspectives on the culture of celebrity, into which Warhol inserted himself, and the nature of art itself. But his overriding obsession with death ran as a theme through the bulk of his work, particularly after Marilyn Monroe's apparent suicide. Warhol's famous "Shot Blue Marilyn" graces the cover of this magnificent volume. Bookseller Inventory # AW-AWR-tcb
