The author looks at the world Warhol inhabited as a young man - a post-war America on the brink of mass commercialism and mass production - to examine his iconic paintings and prints. She demonstrates how Warhol''s fascination with pop culture meshed perfectly with a cultural mood, at once reflective and rebellious. The innovative layout allows the artist''s brilliantly coloured prints and paintings to spring to life, while photographs from Warhol''s life in and out of the limelight offer a balanced appreciation of an artist who taught his audience how to appreciate his art.

Sin duda, el burdel infunde no sólo deseos turbulentos sino un pánico casi innombrable. Los ojos, prestos para la caza de las prostitutas, aterrorizan al neófito, aunque con propiedad nadie puede alardear de sentirse en ese ambito como en casa. Acaso el artista malagueño pensaba que el era el unico (pintor) capaz de aguantar el temblor de la tierra de las putas, contemplando, con los ojos muy abiertos, esos cuerpos que mas que el placer parecen prometer la muerte.

Jorge Pardo is the key art/architecture cross-over artist of the current generation. Architectural elements such as walls, seating, lighting and circulation solutions are combined with 'art' elements such as murals, coloured glass and sculpture to create highly livable, elegant spaces. He combines modernist aesthetics and 'form-follows-function' dogma with his highly sensitive attention to colour, materials and texture to create his signature streamlined sculptures and built environments.

Juan Francisco Elso trata de identificarse con los movimientos populares, tanto artísticos como religiosos, y con la imaginería que de ellos se deriva; se inserta, pues, en la corriente de artistas que intenta aprovechar y superar las paradojas de las cultura latinoamericana, como Ana Mendieta o Lygia Clark.

This is a concise and engaging, yet detailed and informative monograph that explores Gauguin's most Important works. Paul Gauguin (1848-1903) was one of the most important artists of the late 19th century, and one whose work was to have a profound influence on the development of art in the 20th century. He began as an Impressionist, but went on to develop a richly-coloured style in his constant search for pristine originality and unadulterated nature. This concise monograph collects the most important works by Gauguin, not only of his best known paintings of Tahiti in which the artist attempted to reconstruct the perfect life which he had failed to find in reality, but also of many powerful works that reflect the artist's contact with other seminal early modern masters like Van Gogh or Cezanne.
