Published by Mazzotta in 1972, Andy Warhol by Rainer Crone is a comprehensive catalogue raisonné of Warhol's work. This seminal book offers an in-depth reassessment of the artist's career, moving beyond the simplistic labels of 'Pop Art' and 'anti-art' to position Warhol as a unique visionary, whose works reflect personal interpretations of reality.

 

Crone, a young art historian and close collaborator of Warhol until the artist's death in 1987, provides a critical re-evaluation of Warhol's oeuvre, presenting a fresh perspective on his artistic evolution. The book is richly illustrated with more than 325 color and black-and-white plates, featuring Warhol's iconic pieces, such as his portraits of Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor, as well as the famous Campbell Soup Cans. With over 650 works documented—paintings, prints, and objects—the book is an invaluable resource for both scholars and art enthusiasts. Crone’s detailed catalog includes titles, subjects, sizes, and colors, offering a thorough visual record of Warhol’s prolific output. Additionally, a filmography and an extensive bibliography of more than 600 entries, including interviews and major exhibitions, make this book an essential reference guide for those seeking to understand Warhol's impact on art and culture.

 

This early critical text is not just a catalog of Warhol’s work; it is a thoughtful exploration of his art and its place in the modern art world. Andy Warhol by Rainer Crone offers an invaluable perspective on the career of one of the most innovative and influential artists of the 20th century, making it essential reading for anyone interested in his artistic legacy.
