Hello.

I'm getting into pop art a lot for some reason, and Andy Warhol's work caught my eye.

Does anyone know of any good books about him/his work that I could get?

I won't be able to buy it for a while, but I am very intrested.

Thanks. Smile

I don't, I'm not his biggest fan - but I'll cheerfully admit he was influential in the art world.

But maybe someone will see this who knows which book might be best....

I just noticed your signature line. I liked the one book by her that I read, forget the title. Actually, that book was a kind of painting...

Thank you. Smile

I haven't read anything of hers (yet) but I was looking through some philosophy quotes not too long ago and I found that one.

It kind of fits where I am in life right now, I liked it.

This may be an older woman's book for interest (or maybe it is readable by younger): Link Here

Yes, I'm extremely new to pretty much everything, I'm just learing about such broad and intresting subjects I never knew existed. It's all overwhelming and exciting at the same time.

Hi violetchild, Anita Brookner writes really good fiction. One of my favorites is titled "Look at Me."

As for Any Warhol, follow this link on Amazon:

http://amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw/102-5501723-7692925?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=edie

Edie Sedgwick was one of his models-- she lived fast and hard and died young.

Here's a good movie to watch:

"I Shot Andy Warhol."

For some insight into the inner workings of the man, read The Andy Warhol Diaries.
but be prepared for strange
