Publisher's Description
Andy Warhol:
Polaroids, Celebrities
and Self-Portraits
Essay by Francesco Clemente.
This new catalogue documents a recent
exhibition at the Starmach Gallery in
Krakow, presenting Andy Warhol's
Polaroid work during the last two
decades of his life. The 65 color images
here include Warhol's self-portraits-
occasionally in drag or another kind of
costume-as well as Warhol's pictures of
celebrities and artists from all fields.
Included here are artists such as Keith
Haring, Robert Rauschenberg, Roy
Lichtenstein, Francesco Clemente, and
Jean-Michel Basquiat; writers such as
William S. Burroughs and Truman
Capote; and actors including Liza
Minelli and Dennis Hopper, among
numerous others. These images mark
out a territory all their own within
Warhol's oeuvre, a space where both liv-
ing humanity and the spectacle in which
it is woven can coexist. Also featured
here is ''King for a Day,'' Francesco
Clemente's brilliant and revelatory essay
on Andy Warhol.
