The provocative pop artist's on-screen experiments, newly brought
to light in this essential reference work In the 1960s, Andy Warhol
(1928-1987) produced hundreds of film and video works-short and
long, silent and sound, scripted and improvised. This catalogue
raisonne of the artist's films, a complement to 2006's Andy Warhol
Screen Tests, focuses on works he produced from 1963 to 1965.
Detailed cataloguing of each work is combined with orienting and
enlightening essays that cover Warhol's influences, source
material, working methods, and technical innovations, as well as
his engagement with the people he filmed and how they came to life
on the screen. In addition, rich entries offer detailed summaries
and analysis of more than a hundred individual works. The vigorous
illustration program includes countless stills and documentary
images to further elucidate the film works, including many that
have circulated only rarely. Warhol's dynamic and creative approach
to filmmaking redefined the genre, drawing audiences and receiving
positive attention along with deep criticism. In 1970, he placed
his films in storage for the next 14 years, taking them out of
public view and distribution. During that time, critics and
audiences could only piece together information about these works
from hearsay, verbal accounts, and reviews. Since then, the works
have been studied, preserved, and catalogued, culminating in this
volume, which illuminates the true significance of Warhol's radical
experiments in film and his mastery of the medium. Distributed for
the Whitney Museum of American Art
