Flowers, Flowers, Flowers

by Andy Warhol

Flowers, Flowers, Flowers offers a bouquet of Any Warhol's most striking flower images - from early drawings of delicate potted hyacinths to Pop-period daisies silk-screened in fabulously hued variations. These forty-three drawings, prints, and silk-screens have been selected from the archives of the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts and include never-before-published rarities as well as popular prints from Warhol's heyday. Filled with Warhol's droll quips and playful aphorisms, this delightful book of blooms will make the perfect lover's token or lighthearted Mother's Day gift.

About the author

Andy Warhol was an American visual artist, film director and producer. A leading figure in the pop art movement, Warhol is considered one of the most important American artists of the second half of the 20th century. His works explore the relationship between artistic expression, advertising, and celebrity culture that flourished by the 1960s, and span a variety of media, including painting, silkscreening, photography, film, and sculpture. Some of his best-known works include the silkscreen paintings Campbell's Soup Cans (1962) and Marilyn Diptych (1962), the experimental films Empire (1964) and Chelsea Girls (1966), and the multimedia events known as the Exploding Plastic Inevitable (1966–67).
