Synopsis

In The Philosophy of Andy Warhol, the enigmatic, legendary Warhol makes the listener his confidant on love, sex, food, beauty, fame, work, money, success, and much more.

Andy Warhol claimed that he loved being outside a party—so that he could get in. But more often than not, the party was at his own studio, The Factory, where celebrities—from Edie Sedgwick and Allen Ginsberg to the Rolling Stones and the Velvet Underground—gathered in an ongoing bash.

A loosely formed autobiography, told with his trademark blend of irony and detachment, this compelling and eccentric memoir riffs and reflects on all things Warhol: New York, America, and his childhood in McKeesport, Pennsylvania, as well as the explosion of his career in the sixties, and his life among the rich and famous.

Contains mature themes.

About Andy Warhol

Andy Warhol (1928–1987) was an iconic American artist who
was a leading figure in the visual art movement known as pop art. He had a
successful career as a commercial illustrator, after which he became a renowned
and sometimes controversial artist. His works explored the relationship between
artistic expression, the culture of celebrity, and the pervasive influence of advertisements
that proliferated through the 1960s. Warhol’s works include some of the most
expensive paintings ever sold. He was also an author, a music promoter, and a producer
and director of innovative films.

Andy Warhol makes me laugh. I'm not sure that was his intention, but I always reach for his books when I need a quick pick-me-up. In fact, I turned to this book straight after I'd read 'We Need To Talk About Kevin'. And sure enough, after a few pages I fell asleep and had the most blissful night's r......more
