Description
Like Andy Warhol explores the artist's life and aesthetic activities to reveal their internal logic. This comprehensive study goes beyond famous works like Marilyn Monroe's silk screens and Campbell's soup cans, instead examining Warhol's diverse pursuits, including filmmaking, collecting, and publishing. Warhol's "liking" - a central theme in this book - is seen as an activity that fuses feeling with thought, creating new forms of social affiliation. Flatley argues that Warhol's promiscuous liking was a way to emotionally engage the world in a context where it would be easier not to care. By examining these various aspects of Warhol's life and work, this book offers a fresh perspective on the artist's significance and his enduring influence on contemporary culture.
