183 pages : 33 cm, \"I'm for mechanical art,\" said Andy Warhol (1928-87). \"When I took up silkscreening, it was to more fully exploit the preconceived image through commercial techniques of multiple reproduction.\" Printmaking was a vital artistic practice for Warhol. Prints figure prominently throughout his career from his earliest work as a commercial illustrator in the 1950s to the collaborative silkscreens made in the Factory during the 1960s and the commissioned portfolios of his final years. In their fascination with popular culture and provocative subverting of the difference between original and copy, Warhol's prints are recognized now as a prescient forerunner of today's hyper-sophisticated, hyper-saturated and hyper-accelerated visual culture, \"This fully illustrated catalogue accompanies the retrospective exhibition Andy Warhol: Prints from the Collections of Jordan D Schnitzer and His Family Foundation, organized by the Portland Art Museum. Authored by exhibition curator Sara Krajewski, the book's chapters trace the development of Warhol's printmaking practices and his exploration of the photographic image as his source material through three time periods: the books and ephemera of the 1950s, the Factory and Factory Additions 1963- 1974, and Andy Warhol Enterprises, Inc., 1975 - 1987. Deep dive essay by print scholar Richard H. Axsom, senior curator at Madison Museum of Contemporary Art, takes a provocative look at the political implications embedded in the 1968 portfolio Flash - November 22, 1963, and the Sunset prints from 1972.\" -- Publisher's website, Published in conjunction with the exhibition Andy Warhol: Prints from the Collections of Jordan D.
