Author Description

"This revised and expanded fourth edition of Andy Warhol Prints: A Catalogue Raisonne 1962-1987, with 1700 illustrations and full documentation, presents the artist's complete graphic production, from his first unique works on paper in 1962 through his final published portfolio in 1987, including trial proof prints and unpublished prints." "The fourth edition contains a new portrait section, featuring images of artists, entertainers, writers, and sports figures, among others, with 125 illustrations, 100 of which were not included in the earlier editions of this catalogue. Another highlight is a 33-page supplement covering the illustrated books and portfolios Warhol created in the 1950s, which documents techniques that reappear, in more developed forms, in his later prints. These innovative works of the 1950s, explored in a new essay by Donna De Salvo, represent the first phase in the process of Warhol's conceptualization of printmaking."--Jacket.
