THE ANDY WARHOL CATALOGUE RAISONNÉ/ PAINTINGS

This two-book addition to The Andy Warhol Catalogue Raisonné persuasively demonstrates the subversive core of Warhol's art. Intent o n radical departure from his portraiture in the early seventies, Warhol's production gradually became anything but 'just faces'. Fro m portraits of athletes and self-portraits to his Skull and Hammer and Sickle series, the Torso and Sex Parts paintings, and his abs tract Piss, Oxidation, and Cum canvases, volume 5 showcases Warhol's work as powerful, and provocative as ever.
