Andy Warhol ”Giant” Size! YAY!
I’ve always been just fascinated by Andy Warhol, not so much by his “creations” – but mostly by the “Andy Warhol” persona that he created. So, out of curiosity (due to the sheer size and weight of the book, I pre-ordered a copy of the ANDY WARHOL GIANT SIZE book by PHAIDON. And it really is a giant-sized book!
Today I am too tired to start reading it (and I am still in a BRAVE NEW WORLD mood) so I just browsed through it and the amount of photos, newspaper clippings, documents and information is amazing! It was a pleasant surprise.
I hope to have some time during the Easter to start reading it. Here’s some information about the book (from the PHAIDON website):
Normal price: €95.00
Andy Warhol ”Giant” Size
Comprehensive visual biography of Andy Warhol, one of art’s greatest personalities.
- A spectacular visual biography of the life and career of one of the most colourful and innovative artists of the 20th century
- A rare, behind-the-scenes look at the New York art scene of the 1950s to the 1980s
- Includes nearly 2,000 images and documents, many previously unpublished
- Introduction by renegade art critic Dave Hickey, who has his own cult following and additional texts by Bruno Bischofberger, Ronnie Cutrone, David Dalton, Kenneth Goldsmith, Ivan Karp and Peggy Phelan
- A must-have for Warhol fans and any pop culture enthusiast
And that’s all for today. I am feeling too tired and started my day early with a Bodycombat session at 7:30 AM, so I am going to bed.
Good Night.

E a malta a elogiar o “Paint bucket” como ferramenta de desenho.
Incrível. Só assim é que nos apercebemos da evolução da arte digital:
