From the Publisher:
Beyond the familiar Campbell’s Soup
cans, Brillo boxes, silkscreened Marilyn Monroes and floating
silver mylar pillows, 20 years after Pop icon Andy Warhol’s
death, we are still picking through his incredibly prolific output
to understand what his artistic legacy actually is. Andy Warhol:
Other Voices, Other Rooms, published on the occasion of the
major exhibition by the same name at Amsterdam’s Stedelijk
Museum, provides some new insight, digging into Warhol’s
lesser-known film, video and audio tape works. Important—and
just a little scandalous—films like Blow Job and
Kiss, audio tapes of celebrities, friends and anonymous
hangers-on talking and other marginalia are considered alongside
a selection of key photographs, drawings, screen prints and spatial
installations, such as the spectacular “Silver Clouds,”
originally shown in 1966. Edited by Eva Meyer-Hermann and with
contributions by Geralyn Huxley, Greg Pierce and Warhol Museum
Archivist, MattWrbican, who is currently unpacking hundreds of
never-before-seen Warhol Time Capsules in Pittsburgh, this volume
brings readers up to date with the most recent developments in
the way we see the late artist’s oeuvre.
