10 chapitres, 10 périodes clés de la vie d’Andy Warhol, où l’auteur ne nous cache rien de l’homme et de l’artiste. De son enfance pauvre jusqu’au sommet de la célébrité, Andy restera viscéralement attaché à sa mère, habitant avec elle, mais ne lui avouant jamais son homosexualité. Tiraillé entre la création artistique et le merchandising pur et simple de ses œuvres, très rapidement à la tête d’une entreprise créée pour le promouvoir, adorant la fête et tous ses excès, il était un homme complex(é) mais qui a marqué le monde bien au-delà de son époque et de son pays. Tout au long des 562 pages de son livre, Typex convoque toute la pop culture américaine, qui a conquis le monde entier depuis le milieu du XXe siècle. Cinéma, art contemporain, littérature, musique, ils sont tous là : Marilyn Monroe, Greta Garbo, Jackson Pollock, Truman Capote, Lou Reed, Nico, Bob Dylan, Basquiat, Michael Jackson…

Although we know him best as a visual artist and filmmaker, Andy Warhol was also a publisher. Distributing his own books and magazines, as well as contributing to those of others, Warhol found publishing to be one of his greatest pleasures, largely because of its cooperative and social nature. Journeying from the 1950s, when Warhol was starting to make his way through the New York advertising world, through the height of his career in the 1960s, to the last years of his life in the 1980s, Andy Warhol, Publisher unearths fresh archival material that reveals Warhol’s publications as complex projects involving a tantalizing cast of collaborators, shifting technologies, and a wide array of fervent readers. Lucy Mulroney shows that whether Warhol was creating children’s books, his infamous “boy book” for gay readers, writing works for established houses like Grove Press and Random House, helping found Interview magazine, or compiling a compendium of photography that he worked on to his death, he readily used the elements of publishing to further and disseminate his art. Warhol not only highlighted the impressive variety in our printed culture but also demonstrated how publishing can cement an artistic legacy.
