This whimsical collection of Andy Warhol's early drawings reveals the
visual musings of the man before he became the legend. The relatively
unknown experiments in commercial illustration collected here were
created between 1950 and 1960, pre-dating his more famous paintings and
prints. Fanciful, vibrant and bold, these early drawings of fashion,
animals, food, and cherubs display the signature bright colors,
distinctiveness of line, and repetition of unexpected images that would
spark a Pop Art revolution. Beyond demonstrating the playfulness that
made Warhol a household name, these illustrations are a visual treat in
their own right. Interspersed with quintessential Warhol quotations,
this petite volume is a must-have for dedicated Warhol devotees and a
delightful discovery for a new generation of fans.
