About the Item

Andy Warhol, 1928-1987 Works from the collections of Jose´ Mugrabi and an Isle of Man company Perfect Paperback – January 1, 1993 by Jacob-Baal-Teshuva. The art of Andy Warhol continues to hold surprises for even the seasoned Warhol admirer. The best works from one of the world's largest private collections of Warhol paintings are published here for the first time in book form. Beginning with whimsical paintings from the pre-Pop period, this selection of over 100 works spans the full breadth of Warhol's spectacular career, up until his last project: The Last Supper, after Leonardo da Vinci. More than 200 illustrations, many in full color, give a comprehensive overview of the many facets in the work of the "pope of Pop art." Of particular interest is a little-known series of "Paintings for Children," published here for the first time. These delightful pictures of ships, planes, robots, and toys were hung just three feet from the floor when first shown in 1983. A concise biography, richly illustrated with many color plates; quotations from Warhol about art and about himself, as essay on Warhol and the American Dream by David Bourdon; a memoir by art historian and critic Pierre Restany; an interview from 1963 by G.R. Swenson and the last one with Paul Taylor in 1987; as well as a chronology and a detailed and updated bibliography contribute to this fascinating, colorful book. 144 pages, Paperback First published March 1, 1993 Publisher ? : ?

    Located in North Hollywood, CA
    Skyscrapers: A History of the World's Most Famous and Important Skyscrapers. By Judith Dupre, Published by Black Dog & Leventhal Publishers, New York, N.Y., 1996. 1st Edition, 1st Printing. Extremely tall elephant folio (18 inches tall x 8 inches). Large hardcover coffee table book. Now, bigger than ever, this long-awaited revised edition of Judith Dupré's best-selling Skyscrapers is a giant celebration of today's most significant superstructures. It features an all-new design with full-color photographs, 10 new buildings, and informative updates throughout. Includes Foreword; Introductory Interview with Philip Johnson. List of One Hundred Tallest Buildings in the World. Profusely illustrated with black-and-white photographs. The lower front left jacket corner contains a repaired one inch closed tear; the jacket is otherwise in fine condition. ".This magnificent tour presents a fascinating look at fifty of the greatest skyscrapers in the world. Breathtaking photographs capture details often missed by the naked eye; architectural drawings and pictures of works-in-progress take you behind the scenes and enrich your understanding of the efforts involved in erecting many of the buildings; facts-at-a-glance charts give you the vital statistics, including the locations of the structure, its height, the primary architect, the date of completion, materials used, and information about its place in architectural history.You'll encounter such architectural pioneers as William Le Baron Jenney, who took advantage of new technologies like fireproofing, elevators, and electrical lights to create, in 1885, the Home Insurance Building in Chicago, generally acknowledged to be the first skyscraper; Daniel Burnham, who, inspired by the irregular building site, designed NewYork's Flatiron Building, a dramatic triangular structure that exuberantly mixes Gothic and Renaissance motifs; and Miles van der Rohe, whose elegant, monumental Seagram Building epitomizes the ideals of the modernist movement.From the ancient pyramids of Egypt...
