ANDY WARHOL: 7 ILLUSTRATED BOOKS 1952-1959

In 1950s New York, before he became one of the most famous names of the 20th century, Andy Warhol was already a skilled and successful commercial artist. During this time, as part of his strategy to woo clients and forge friendships, he created seven handmade artist’s books, reserved to his most valued contacts. These featured personal, unique drawings and quirky texts revealing his fondness for―among other subjects―cats, food, myths, shoes, beautiful boys, and gorgeous girls.
