Book: Stargazer: The Life, World And Films Of Andy Warhol 'Stargazer' provides an unforgettable portrait of Warhol's most interesting invention - his own public personality: The strange persona that this fey, frightened and brilliantly talented poor-boy from Pittsburgh created to survive the savage world of his own ambitions.
After a long, critical appraisal of Warhol's career and social presence up to the time of his death, Koch examines the cultural vortex in which the artist first existed: his old sixties studio, the Factory. It was here, that Warhol produced his films, notorious underground classics whose radical esthetics are discussed in depth-from the silent marathon, "Sleep," to "Chelsea Girls."
