Obsessed with consumerism and the cult of celebrity, Warhol exalted the surface of things – and yet he was a man of deep complexity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Andy, Typex captures the remarkable life of the king of Pop Art, from his working-class upbringing in Pittsburgh to the dizzying heights of his celebrity. Spanning a period that began with the talkies and ended with the advent of house music, it is also a memorable portrait of 20th-century pop culture and the stars who defined it: from Elvis to Greta Garbo, Truman Capote to Lou Reed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTaking in Warhol's early career as a commercial illustrator, his relationship with the Velvet Underground, and the development of his own instantly recognisable style, Typex's Andy is an exhilarating portrait of a transcendent artist and a master self-publicist. Intensively researched, this 568-page graphic novel – with silver edgestain on the pages – is the first to tell the complete life story of the iconic pop artist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1628g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 187 x 260 x 30 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781910593585                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Typex","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44093315252474,"sku":"9781910593585","price":17.84,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/67c3d37a48135afa84db7e91f11ec29a.jpg?v=1625631500","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/andy-the-life-and-times-of-andy-warhol","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
