Andy Warhol: A Retrospective
Museum of Modern Art, New York - 1989
Published on the occasion of the landmark MoMA exhibition Andy Warhol: A Retrospective (February 6-May 2, 1989), organized by Kynaston McShine. This is the definitive late-20th-century Warhol catalog, issued shortly after the artist's death and widely regarded as the most important institutional overview of his work.
Lavishly illustrated and richly documented, the book covers Warhol's career from early commercial drawings through Pop icons, films, portraits, and late works. Essays by Robert Rosenblum and Benjamin H. D. Buchloh place Warhol firmly within art history rather than celebrity culture, making this an essential reference for collectors, scholars, and serious Warhol fans.
Features the iconic camouflage-style cover portrait and a frontispiece photograph of Warhol by Robert Mapplethorpe (1986).
