Book Andy Warhol: Impossible collection by Assouline
Description
Andy Warhol's explosive Pop Art and sharp commentary on advertising and celebrity culture are renowned and deeply relevant even decades after their creation. Although Warhol himself can be a polarizing figure both personally and professionally, there is no doubt that he was a pioneer of the Pop movement, and today, as a result, his works regularly fetch astronomical prices. In this evocative addition to Assouline's Ultimate Collection, Warhol expert and former director of the Andy Warhol Museum Eric Shiner curates the 100 unique and essential works that define the evolution of this illustrious artist, tracing Warhol's dynamic career from the end of the forties to the end of the eighties and creating a breathtaking collection whose pieces, because of their rarity, their value and their prestige in the context of a museum or another collection, could simply never be acquired by a single collector. Casual art lovers know Campbell's Soup Cans and the Marilyn Diptych, but Andy Warhol: The Impossible Collection goes further, revealing and revisiting less ubiquitous but equally powerful pieces, spanning paintings, prints, sculptures, films and photographs, of Warhol's astonishing work.
Exclusive white gloves and canvas tote bag are included with every purchase of an Ultimate Collection book.
