Andy Warhol
(1928–1987) is hailed as the most important proponent of the
Pop art
movement. A critical and creative observer of American society, he explored key themes of
consumerism, materialism, media, and celebrity
.
Drawing on contemporary advertisements, comic strips, consumer products, and Hollywood’s most famous faces, Warhol proposed a
radical reevaluation of what constituted artistic subject matter
. Through Warhol, a Campbell’s soup can and Coca Cola bottle became as worthy of artistic status as any traditional still life. At the same time, Warhol
reconfigured the role of the artist
. Famously stating “I want to be a machine,” he systematically reduced the presence of his own authorship, working with
mass-production methods and images
, as well as dozens of assistants in a studio he dubbed
the Factory.
This book introduces Warhol’s multifaceted, prolific oeuvre, which
revolutionized distinctions between “high” and “low” art
and integrated ideas of living, producing, and consuming that remain central questions of modern experience.
