Warhol Memoir By Christopher Makos. Foreword by Tom Ford. Introduction by Glenn Albin.
As did Warhol by Makos, this volume contains a relentless sequence of photos of Andy Warhol, taken by his long-time friend and companion Christopher Makos. Unlike that first book, this one is comprised of photographs which have mostly never been published, pictures of the more private, reserved Warhol. The man who promised everyone 15 minutes of fame would perhaps appreciate having these pictures put out for the public posthumously: pictures of him at the Pompidou, clowning around during Lent, with Fred Hughes on a private plane, in front of the original The Last Supper, corseted and getting a massage, on the deck of Calvin Klein's Fire Island beach house, modeling in an 80s Op-Art shirt, at The Factory with everyone from Catherine Guinness to Georgia O'Keeffe, kissing everyone from Dal' to John Lennon, working out, skiing in Aspen, and shopping in Upstate New York.
