Andy Warhol
The name of American artist Andy Warhol is all but synonymous with Pop art, the movement he helped shape in the 1960s. He was phenomenally prolific, and the archive of original photography, prints, drawings, paintings and other art that he left behind is beyond vast.
Andy Warhol is known for his clever appropriation of motifs and images from popular advertising and commercials, which he integrated into graphic, vibrant works that utilized mass-production technologies such as printmaking, photography and silkscreening. Later in his career, Warhol expanded his oeuvre to include other forms of media, founding Interview magazine and producing fashion shoots and films on-site at the Factory, his world-famous studio in New York.
Born and educated in in Pittsburgh, Warhol moved to New York City in 1949 and built a successful career as a commercial illustrator. Although he made whimsical drawings as a hobby during these years, his career as a fine artist began in the mid-1950s with ink-blot drawings and hand-drawn silkscreens. The 1955 lithograph You Can Lead a Shoe to Water illustrates how he incorporated in his artwork advertising styles and techniques, in this case shoe commercials.
As a child, Warhol was often sick and spent much of his time in bed, where he would make sketches and put together collections of movie-star photographs. He described this period as formative in terms of his skills and interests. Indeed, Warhol remained obsessed with celebrities throughout his career, often producing series devoted to a famous face or an object from the popular culture, such as Chairman Mao or Campbell’s tomato soup. The 1967 silkscreen Marilyn 25 embodies his love of bright color and famous subjects.
Warhol was a prominent cultural figure in New York during the 1960s, ’70s and ’80s. The Factory was a gathering place for the era’s celebrities, writers, drag queens and fellow artists, and collaboration was common. To this day, Warhol remains one of the most important artists of the 20th century and continues to exert influence on contemporary creators.

- Rats & Star, Soul Vacation, LPBy Andy WarholLocated in NEW YORK, NYRats & Star Soul Vacation, 1983 Vinyl, LP, Album Label: Epic – 28・3H-100 Cover art designed by Andy Warhol 12 x 12 Inches (30.48 x 30.48 cm). Cover: Very good to excellent condition. Includes original record in excellent condition. Looks super cool framed. Featured prominently in 'Andy Warhol: The Record Covers, 1949-1987- Catalog Raisonne' by Warhol scholar Paul Marechal. Further Background: In 1983 Warhol was commissioned to design the cover for the Japanese pop group's Rats & Star’s album ‘Soul Vacation’. Warhol has incorporated blocks of irregularly shaped color along with printed hand-drawn elements helping create a bold, vibrant image. The band’s name is a palindrome (it reads the same backwards and forwards) and originates in the belief that it is possible to be a rat, coming from a less prosperous background, and still become a star: a notion close to Warhol’s heart...Category

$180 Sale Price20% Off - Raymond Pettibon Marcel Dzama Let Us Compare Mythologies (Pettibon artist book)By Raymond PettibonLocated in NEW YORK, NYRaymond Pettibon Marcel Dzama artist book 2016: Raymond Pettibon, Marcel Dzama: Let Us Compare Mythologies, this rare limited edition artist book/ zine was published on the occasion of Pettibon & Dzama’s exhibition at David Zwirner, London, in October 2016. The book uniquely includes a large fold-out poster of ‘It is big big business’ - featuring Pettibon surfers immersed in gigantic waves amidst Dzama’s illustrations of outlandish characters. The title, Let Us Compare Mythologies is an homage to musician Leonard Cohen. Medium: offset-printed softcover artist book which includes a large fold out poster. Approximately 30+ pages. Book: 8.5 x 11 inches. Poster: 37.5 x 10.25 inches Unused. Very good to excellent overall condition. Unsigned from an edition of 500. Published by Zwirner Books, 2016. About Raymond Pettibon (American b. 1957): Having emerged from the Southern California DIY culture and its punk-rock sensibility, Raymond Pettibon fuses together youthful edginess and political engagement. Drawing from disparate cultural sources—from Marcel Proust to the Bible—the artist’s cartoon-inspired ink drawings on unframed paper recall the look of fanzines and concert flyers, however with an often cryptic semblance of narrative. More recently, Pettibon’s works have been a sustained critique of the Iraq War and American foreign policy, such as No Title ("Why press him?") (2007), which depicts George W. Bush with bloodied hands and surrounded by pointed, ironic commentary. Pettibon was a recipient of the Whitney's Bucksbaum award in 2004.
