Although we know him best as a visual artist and filmmaker, Andy
Warhol was also a publisher. Distributing his own books and
magazines, as well as contributing to those of others, Warhol found
publishing to be one of his greatest pleasures, largely because of
its cooperative and social nature. Journeying from the 1950s, when
Warhol was starting to make his way through the New York
advertising world, through the height of his career in the 1960s,
to the last years of his life in the 1980s, Andy Warhol, Publisher
unearths fresh archival material that reveals Warhol's publications
as complex projects involving a tantalizing cast of collaborators,
shifting technologies, and a wide array of fervent readers. Lucy
Mulroney shows that whether Warhol was creating children's books,
his infamous "boy book" for gay readers, writing works for
established houses like Grove Press and Random House, helping found
Interview magazine, or compiling a compendium of photography that
he worked on to his death, he readily used the elements of
publishing to further and disseminate his art. Warhol not only
highlighted the impressive variety in our printed culture but also
demonstrated how publishing can cement an artistic legacy.
