Andy Warhol, 1928-1987: Commerce Into Art (Basic Art)
Klaus Honnef
Taschen
, 2000
Andy Warhol is recognized today as the most important exponent of the Pop Art movement. He overturned the traditional understanding of art and placed in its stead a concept that retracts the individuality of the artist. Warhol was a critical observer of American society, exposing his compatriots' consumerism in his paintings ("Campbell-" and "Brillo" series), as well as their fascination for sensational journalism. In 1963 Warhol founded his ...

A Unique Collection of Portraits
The British photographer Sir Anthony Snowdon once said something to the effect that you cannot look at a photograph and identify who shot it. He couldn't have been more wrong about someone like Helmut Newton. You recognize many of his photographs immediately. They are often of women (tall and svelte), they are erotic thought according to Newton not violent, they are often shot at night with ...

Established critics place the photographic works of Günter Blum on the same level as contemporary works by Robert Mapplethorpe, Helmut Newton, or Lucien Clergue. Blum's exceptional artistic examination of the possibilities and ideas of the medium of black-and-white photography has made his work popular among collectors on the international art market and museum exhibitors. The female nude has always been Blum's main motif. Making a decisive use ...

Excellent value
Taschen does it again. This comprehensive guide covers an extrodinary amount of 20th century art beginning with impressionism to the 1990's. Everything from sculpture, painting and photography is gone over here, as well as the movements that changed and influenced them. Full color photos and artist bios included. A little gem of a book. Well fairly large gem, hell, lets call it a 10 pound stone. ...

self-images... What's yours??
The idea behind this book is simple: 100 women models, one box camera, one white room with no props, one video monitor to see what the camera is seeing and one shutter chord to take a photo of yourself... nude. This is perhaps the first book of photography where the photographer himself is not actually doing the camera work. 100 women, from vastly different walks of life and ages, pose before ...

That's the first thought after viewing and reading this book. Munkacsi's photography is about the joy of living. A refreshing look at life... If you like Cartier-Bresson, you'll centainly love Munkacsi. Recommended to anyone in love with photography.
