Synopsis
The power in Warhol's portraits stems in part from the depth of his engagement with the society his subjects moved in. Nowhere is this involvement more clearly demonstrated than in his late photography. These previously unpublished images from the Andy Warhol Foundation reveal the reality behind the curtain at Studio 54 and the Factory, and look into the bloodshot eyes of the endless throng of celebrities that came to make up the artist's social life. If there had remained in Warhol something of the true voyeur, an alternately detached and star-struck watcher, that role largely shifted as he himself became visible in celebrity's funhouse mirrors, and became a more profoundly involved and then again more fascinated participant; Warhol's World finds the artist at the far end of that transition, at one with his subjects, all lost to themselves and found by the camera. Warhol's own position in the New York scene brought him unparalleled access to subjects like Jean-Michel Basquiat, Mick Jagger, Debbie Harry, Diana Ross, Robert Rauschenberg, Jerry Hall, Bianca Jagger, Grace Jones, Demi Moore, David Hockney, Kenny Scharf, Diana Vreeland, Paloma Picasso and Ozzy Ozbourne, and this extensive book establishes--if there was any doubt--that Warhol cared deeply about human society, human interaction, and human frailty, and took intense joy in documenting them in the microcosm that was his Village.

- v***w (55)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseItem shipped quickly and is exactly as pictured. Seller communication could have been better — they ignored two messages (one before I purchased and one after it shipped) regarding the provenance of the item. I would have been fine with an "I don't know," but the lack of response was troubling. I did send some pictures to an expert on fake artifacts, and he believes it to be genuine. So all in all, I'm happy. The price was fair, it was well packaged, and I'm very happy to own it.
- i***a (32)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseSeller packed the plates exceptionally well and they were delivered in a very timely manner to Hawaii. We had an issue with one of the plates which was not the fault of the seller. He was very understanding in prompt communications and offered an appropriate refund. Overall, the seller is very professional. We would definitely purchase from him again!
