A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

As one of today s most exciting artists, Kenny Scharf rose to prominence in the New York art scene in the 80s as part of a dynamic and influential group of artists that included Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, and Jean-Michel Basquiat. He has since returned to California, but he has retained the playful Pop aesthetic for which he is internationally renowned. This complete new volume covers Scharf s illustrious career and his experiences and activities in the downtown art scene. His work is instantly recognizable, with idiosyncratic cartoon creatures popping up in the oddest of places: in paintings, on functional objects, or piled up on top of each other to form huge totem-poles. Richard Marshall helps navigate the reader across the decades of Scharf s career. Carlo McCormick s essay focuses on Scharf s fanciful customized cars and installations. Ann Magnuson reminisces about Scharf s happenings in the East Village and the club scene. Cartonnage jaune avec titre, jaquette illustrée rempliée, 28,5 x 28,5 cm
