Warhol_giant_1 

With the Warhol movie Factory Girl coming out this fall starring Sienna Miller, and the upcoming Ric Burns documentary Warhol airing on PBS American Masters, it's shaping up to be the season, if not year, of Andy.

And now there's the largest single-volume work on the legendary artist ever published. This behemoth covers his equally oversize life beginning with the birth certificate of Andrew Warhola and ending with  an offering of a Campbell's Tomato Soup can by Warhol's grave, providing an illuminating visual history along the way of the New York art scene and cultural life from the 1950s to 1980s.  A chic addition to your (extremely sturdy) coffeetable if you must know more-more-more about the endlessly fascinating cult of personality, work and life - both public & private - of one of America's most fabulously infamous cultural icons. Available at Amazon.com
