Crone 419. Slg. Missmahl 868. Papiergesänge S. 43 (mit Abb.). Parr/Badger II, 144-145. – Erste Ausgabe des legendären Pop Art-Buches. – Mit allen zehn Faltfiguren und Beilagen: Ritterburg, Ziehharmonika (tönt), Flugzeug, Federscheibe »Andy Warhol’s ›The Chelsea Girls’‹«, faltbarer Dodekaeder, Folienschallplatte, Faltnase, Hunt’s Tomato Past-Dose, Abreißzettel, Luftballon (dieser, wie meist mit den angrenzenden Blättern verklebt). – Andy Warhol (1928-1987), Hauptvertreter der Pop-Art, vermittelt die wohl ehrlichsten Aussagen zum „American way of life“ durch seine Kunst der „totalen Dominanz des Kommerziellen, der reinen Sensation, der Trivialisierung und Vulgarisierung“ (Pierre, Lexikon der Pop Art, S. 138). – Ein Blatt im Falz etwas eingerissen, die S. mit dem Luftballon verklebt, sehr gutes Exemplar.
First edition of the legendary Pop Art book. – Featuring all ten fold-out figures and inserts: knight’s castle, accordion (makes a sound), aeroplane, spring disc ‘Andy Warhol’s “The Chelsea Girls”’, foldable dodecahedron, foil record, fold-out nose, Hunt’s Tomato Paste tin, tear-off slip, balloon (this one, as is usually the case, stuck to the adjacent pages). – “One of the most important and exuberant Pop Art objects ever published. From its […] cover to the various pop-ups and […] to the stream-of-consciousness photographs by artists such as Billy Name and Nat Finkelstein, it is also one of the ultimate photobooks-as-objects. It is, moreover, the principal Factory photo album, one of the most authoritative biographies of Warhol and a supreme example of the diaristic photographic mode before such a mode was even considered” (Parr/Badger). – Andy Warhol (1928–1987), a leading figure of Pop Art, conveys what are arguably the most honest statements on the ‘American way of life’ through his art characterised by the ‘total dominance of the commercial, pure sensation, trivialisation and vulgarisation’ (Pierre, Lexikon der Pop Art, p. 138). – One page slightly torn at the fold; the page featuring the balloon is stuck down; a very good copy.
