Description

Exploring the work of Andy Warhol and KAWS, this book provides an unprecedented look into the darker themes shared by the two world-famous artists. Published by Phaidon, the book features a foreword by The Andy Warhol Museum director Patrick Moore, an interview by artist, photographer and filmmaker Laurie Simmons and essays by art historians Thomas Crow and Marianne Dobner. KAWS x Andy Warhol delves into the more somber subjects approached by the two artists: death, nostalgia, disaster, and abstraction. The common thread becomes clear as the illustrations pair works created by the two artists, a powerful intersection that goes to the heart of human nature. Launched to accompany a major international exhibition at the The Andy Warhol Museum, the book offers a never-before-seen view of the artistic and thematic sensibilities shared by two of the world’s most popular and well-known artists.
