. . "A very accurate accounting of what the real Andy Warhol was
really about" .......... Taylor Mead/Actor, Warhol Superstar . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The first half of twentieth
century art belongs to Pablo Picasso, but there is no argument that
the second half belongs to Andy Warhol. One of the most influential
figures in modern art, Andy Warhol is instantly recognized for his
Marilyn and Elvis portraits, his iconic Campbell's Soup cans, and
for his blazing the trail for underground avant garde film,
producing more than sixty films from 1963 to 1968. Warhol's studio,
known as "The Factory," was a famous gathering place that brought
together distinguished intellectuals, drag queens, rock stars,
transvestites, writers, artists, Bohemian street people, junkies,
Hollywood celebrities and wealthy patrons. The Factory was a place
where society's outcasts could mingle with the rich and famous,
where legendary parties set trends and influenced popular culture,
and where Warhol would create works which are now valued in the
millions. But Warhol also had a dark side, and many of those who
worked with him had little respect for him. Behind Warhol the
artist were many people who sacrificed their own careers and even
their lives to bring Warhol the notoriety he gained throughout his
relentless pursuit for fame. In The Real King of Pop, Warhol
historian and collector Michael Malott compiles his years of
researching Andy's life and interviewing those who knew and worked
with Warhol into an extensive biography on this legendary, aloof
and often misunderstood individual....... SPECIAL LIMITED EDITION
