This " The Andy Warhol Diaries " rare vintage 1989 first edition collector's hardcover Pop Art memoirs book is an incredibly special and unique book to add to your library collection.
The hardcover book with black linen wrapped spine, monochrome black embossed cover board self portrait art, silver tone foil spine titles, and dust jacket is published by Warner Books, New York. printed in 1989, copyright The Estate of Andy Warhol, edited by Pat Hackett, book and end paper designed by Giorgetta Bell McRee.
The 807 page begins November 24, 1976 and ends eleven years later on February 17, 1987, just five days before his death. It is a condensed version by Hackett of Warhol's more than 20,000 page diary.
" The Andy Warhol Diaries " is the closet thing there ever will be to Andy Warhol's autobiography, yet it is more honest and revealing than any autobiography could ever be. Every morning beginning in 1976, Warhol telephones his longtime friend and writing collaborator Pat Hackett and related the events of the past 24 hours. This enigmatic man unabashedly poured out his heart and mind in what may be the most candid and compulsively readable journal kept by a major personality of The Twentieth Century. The results are astounding.
The Andy Warhol Diaries is an illuminating social document. An insiders view into his incredibly compelling world and all of the special people who surrounded him. But even more fascinating than the gossip and glitterati is the intimate picture that emerges of Warhol himself : shy, ambitious, generous, bitchy, funny, phobic, tormented. Here is the actual voice of the modern genius who could look at a simple can of soup and see instead an image that revolutionized the world's concept fo art. Here is Andy Warhol.
The rare vintage 1st edition hardcover Pop Art memoirs book measures 8 3/8" W X 9 1/2" H X 1 3/4" D, with 807 pages, featuring 119 black and white photo illustrations.
