First paperback printing of this photographic study of America in the eighties. Quarto original wrappers. Boldly signed by Andy Warhol on the front panel. In fine condition. Designed by Barbara Richter. Andy Warhol carried a camera with him everywhere he went and America, a mà lange of text and image whose photographs were selected by Warhol from ten years of extraordinary shots, echoes the strange beauty and staggering contradictions of the country itself. Exploring Warholâ s greatest obsessionsâ "including image and celebrityâ "Warhol photographs wrestlers and politicians, the beautiful wealthy and the disenfranchised poor. Many well-known figures are found in these pages: Capote with the fresh scars of a facelift, Madonna hiding beneath a brunette bob, a nude Keith Haring about to go for a dip in the sea. He writes about the country he loves, about how he wishes he had died when he was shot in 1968, about commercialism, fame and beauty. An America without Warhol is almost as inconceivable as Warhol without America, and this touching, witty tribute is the great artist of the superficial at his most deeply personal.
