NEW EXPANDED EDITION: Andy Warhol: Prints, Catalogue Raisonné

“Andy Warhol’s images may be as intrinsically shallow or inane as Howdy Doody, which doubtless led Warhol’s critics to think of him as shallow and inane. But such critics were blind to the power these images held for vast populations whose lives they distilled and energized.” So writes art historian Arthur C. Danto in his deep exploration of Warhol's power in visual culture, published in the definitive catalogue raisonné, Andy Warhol Prints: A Catalogue Raisonné 1962-1987, first issued in 1989 and now available in a new, heavily updated fourth edition.

Andy Warhol, all the way

The Whitney Museum's major Andy Warhol retrospective opens to the public today, and we're celebrating with this print from the artist's 1967 Marilyn Monroe (Marilyn) series, reproduced from our comprehensive catalogue raisonné of the prints, 1962–1987. "Through his conceptualization of the printing process," essayist Donna De Salvo writes, "Warhol transformed that process into his metaphor for America—its capitalism, its abundance, its industry, and, most important, its simultaneous and contradictory desire for innovation and uniformity—Marcel Duchamp meets Norman Rockwell meets cable television. In the subtle details of a single Camouflage print or the 632 variations of Sunset, we also discover a world of illusion fabricated by Andy Warhol, an artist who in the end got more than he could ever have foreseen when he decided 'not to be imaginative.'" continue to blog

Andy Warhol: Prints

"More than any other artist of his generation, Andy Warhol understood how the reproduced image had come to reflect and shape contemporary life," Donna De Salvo writes in the definitive new edition of Andy Warhol: Prints, A Catalogue Raisonné 1962–1987. "His paintings of Coca-Cola bottles, race riots in Birmingham, Alabama, and the empty desolation of the death chamber are like a catalogue of contemporary hieroglyphs scattered across the American landscape. Warhol's decision to select images from popular culture and combine them with the printing processes of the commercial world was an essential element of his Pop statement. With nearly scientific fervor, he dissected the very mechanics of image production and, through this unexpected commonplace vehicle, discovered a way to be original." This selection of Warhol's 1971 Electric Chairs edition is reproduced from the book, one of our top Holiday Gift Books of 2015. >> continue to blog
