Andy Warhol - Knives Paintings
In English. Hardcover, 64 pages, 24.5 x 30.4 cm. Jablonka Galerie, 1998.
More than any other artist, Andy Warhol incorporated everyday objects into his work. It is notable that he frequently addressed topics such as death and violence. Just think of the series «Car Crash», the race riots or the impactful images of the electric chair.
Robert Rosenblum analyzes Warhol's work as a critical commentary on the dark side of the USA, especially with «Knives Paintings». And the work on this theme is documented, in detail, in this volume, with drawings, sketches, drafts and silkscreens. A unique book.
