"A Printed Compendium of Pop Art Appreciation
that wants to be seen"

– uncrate.com

Andy Warhol's explosive pop art and astute commentary on advertising and celebrity culture are well known and relevant decades after their creation. Though Warhol himself could be a polarizing figure, both personally and professionally, he was undoubtedly a pioneer of the pop movement, and his works regularly fetch astronomical prices today. In this impressive addition to Assouline's Ultimate Collection, Warhol expert and former director of the Andy Warhol Museum, Eric Shiner, curates the 100 seminal, unique works that defined the development of this celebrated artist, and chronicles Warhol's dynamic career from the late 1940s through the late 1940s 1980s after creating a stunning compendium whose pieces simply could never all be acquired by a single collector due to their rarity, value and prestige as part of a museum or other collection. The casual art lover will be familiar with Campbell's Soup Cans and the Marilyn Diptych, but Andy Warhol: The Impossible Collection goes deeper, unveiling and reworking some less ubiquitous but equally powerful pieces, spanning paintings, prints, sculpture, films and photographs from Warhol's amazing oeuvre.
