(WARHOL, ANDY). Rosenblum, Robert. David Whitney, Editor. ANDY WARHOL: PORTRAITS OF THE 70'S - DELUXE SLIPCASED EDITION SIGNED BY ANDY WARHOL. Signed by the Artist. New York: The Whitney Museum of American Art & Random House, 1979. First Edition 1/200 Deluxe. 8vo. Cloth in Illustrated Slipcase. Artist Monograph. Fine/No Jacket - As Issued. 144pp, profusely illustrated in color and b&w. In a protective clear acetate dustwrapper. Following his recuperation from the near-fatal gunshot wound administered by Valerie Solanas at the end of the sixties, Andy Warhol decided to reassess his priorities. He realized that a great way to hang out with the rich and famous, and make a lot of money in the process, was to solicit commissions to paint their portraits. This enterprise, which transformed the once great Pop Artist into a nouveau-riche court painter was legitimized in 1979 when the Whitney Museum of American Art presented a retrospective of these Factory produced, glorified oversized Polaroids. Found here are the multi-colored diptychs of a glittering who's who of the seventies: the Agnellis, Truman Capote, Leo Castelli, Kay Fortson, Halston, Brooke Hayward, Dennis Hopper, Mick Jagger, Roy Lichtenstein, Golda Meir, Liza Minnelli, Lynda Palevsky, Kimiko Powers, Yves St. Laurent, the Weisman's etc. A most handsome example from the limited edition of two hundred numbered copies BOLDLY SIGNED by Andy Warhol in thick black marker on the limitation page at front, in the publisher's illustrated slipcased, as issued. This has the original price of $50.00 discreetly noted in black ink at the upper foredge corner of the limitation page.

Near Fine/No Jacket - As Issued. np (76pp), profusely and elaborately illustrated in b&w and color.

Rose, Aaron & Christian Strike, Editors. With Essays by Alex Baker,Thom Collins, Jeffrey Deitch, Rene deGuzman, Carlo McCormick & Jocko Weyland. BEAUTIFUL LOSERS: CONTEMPORARY ART AND STREET CULTURE. New York: Iconoclast Productions in Association with D.A.P. (Distributed Art Publishers), 2004. Second Printing. 4to. Cloth in Dust Jacket. Exhibition Catalog. As New/As New. 272pp, profusely illustrated in color and b&w. Designed by Stephen Kinder Design Partnership. With a biography for each artist. "The greatest cultural accomplishments in history have never been the result of the brainstorms of marketing men, corporate focus groups, or any homogenized methods; they have always happened organically. More often than not, these manifestations have been the result of a few like-minded people coming together to create something new and original for no other purpose than a common love of doing it. In the 1990s, a loose-knit group of American artists and creators, many just out of their teens, began their careers in just such a way. Influenced by the popular underground youth subcultures of the day, such as skateboarding, graffiti, street fashion, and independent music, artists began to create art that reflected the lifestyles they led. Many had no formal training and almost no conception of the inner workings of the art world. They learned their crafts through practice, trial and error, and good old-fashioned innovation. Not since the Beat Generation have we seen a group of creative individuals with such a unified aesthetic sense and varied cultural facets. The world of art has been greatly affected by their accomplishments as have the worlds of fashion, music, literature, film, and, ironically, athletics. Over the years, the group has matured, and many have become more Establishment-oriented; but no matter, their independent spirit has remained steadfast. Beautiful Losers is a retrospective celebration of this spirit, with hundreds of artworks by over two dozen artists." This extraordinary catalogue was published in conjunction with the 2004 touring exhibition "Beautiful Losers", and is a colorful compendium of popular culture related artwork, graphics, and photos. The contributing artists are divided into two historical categories - the "Roots and Influences" who are Jean-Michel Basquiat, Neil Blender, Larry Clark, R. Crumb, Glen E. Friedman, Futura, Keith Haring, Wes Humpston, Ari Marcopoulos, Raymond Pettibon, Brian Schroeder (Pushead), Craig R.

(WARHOL, ANDY). Warhola, Julia & Andy Warhol. HOLY CATS BY ANDY WARHOL'S MOTHER. NP (New York). ND (circa 1954): NP (Self Published), First Edition. 8vo. Illustrated Boards. Artists' Book. Near Fine/No Jacket - As Issued. np (44pp), 20 b&w illustrations. "Holy Cats by Andy Warhol's Mother" is a whimsical, mid-fifties collaborative effort privately published by Andy Warhol. This quaint book tells the tale of beloved departed family feline Hester cavorting with the other cats and angels in Heaven. Its charming drawings are in black ink reproduced on various brightly colored and coated papers, with the lettering clearly executed by Julia Warhola. Andy adored his mom's penmanship, and since she did not speak English fluently, he would often write out captions himself for her to then copy in her inimitable style. She contributed in this fashion to many of his books and commercial jobs of the period. While the illustrations bear a marked resemblance to those of Warhol's "25 Cats Named Sam and One Blue Pussy" portfolio of 1954, the content of "Holy Cats by Andy Warhol's Mother" is most frequently attributed solely to Julia Warhola - hence we imagine, the title. A bright, most handsome copy of this uncommon and fragile tome showing just the slightest bit of handling and light soiling to its off-white illustrated boards along with a very faint stain at the heel of the spine. This example bears the discreet stamp of "The Estate of Andy Warhol" in light blue ink along with some minimal pencil annotations at the lower foredge corner of the inside rear board.

Large Square 4to. LP in Illustrated Album Cover. Fine/Near Fine. One black vinyl long-playing phonograph record in a plain paper inner-sleeve, inside a 12 x 12 inch album cover printed b&w offset recto, and two color offset verso. Design by Irwin Rosenhouse. Cover Photograph by Andy Warhol. This is the very first recording issued by the late pianist, composer and lyricist John Wallowitch. Best known as one half of the Manhattan cabaret performing duo Wallowitch and Ross, his songs have been recorded by the likes of Tony Bennett, Blossom Dearie, Dixie Carter, Doc Severinson, and many others. He was also the brother of the late photographer Ed Wallowitch, a confidant and early Factory assistant to Andy Warhol. Art directed by noted New York designer Irwin Rosenhouse, Warhol collaged a series of photobooth images for its cover that capture the suited Wallowitch from his chest up to his mouth, cutting off any other identifying facial features (as well as making a non-issue of the pianist's baldness). The recordings consist of twelve show tunes and standards including "Swanee", "I'll Remember April", "Fly Me to the Moon", and "I Left My Heart in San Francisco". The jacket is stamped "Stereo" on the verso in black ink, and is remarkably clean and fresh. A most handsome copy of this uncommon, early Andy Warhol item (entry number twenty-six in Paul Marechal's "Andy Warhol: The Record Covers 1949-1987 - Catalogue Raisonné", and also catalogued on page 48 of Guy Schraenen's "Vinyl: Records and Covers by Artists") that predates his "The Velvet Underground And Nico" album cover by two years.
