Book Description
Steidl Collectors Series. Gerard Malanga made his reputation as a co-founder of Andy Warhol's factory. His career as a photographer began there between 1964 and 1966, when he and Warhol made screen tests of 300 people. Later on, he became famous for his portraits of Iggy Pop, Robert Mapplethorpe, Tennessee Williams, Alice Cooper, Mick Jagger, Lou Reed and William S. Burroughs. These photographs take the viewer back to pop culture (as it once was) and the Beat Generation. Still later, throughout the 80s and well into the 90s, Malanga gave the viewer a taste of the magical relation of femininity to charm, as embodied in his nudes.

Cinema at the Margins

Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
More and more, just a few canonical classics, such as Michael Curtiz’s “Casablanca” (1942) or Victor Fleming’s “Gone With The Wind” (1939), are representing the entire film output of an era, to a new generation that knows little of the past, and is encouraged by popular media to live only in the eternal present. What will happen to the rest of the films that enchanted, informed and transported audiences in the 1930s, 1940s, and even as recently as the 1960s? This collection of essays aims to highlight some of the lesser-known treasures of the past – those titles that have been pushed aside by today’s wave of cinema amnesia.

Warhol in Ten Takes
Author: Gary Needham
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1839021136
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
Andy Warhol remains one of the world's most influential artists, and his reputation has only grown since his death in 1987. He first picked up a film camera in 1963. Within the space of five years, he made around 650 films. These are now recognised as a hugely significant part of Warhol's oeuvre, vital for understanding his output as a whole. Warhol in Ten Takes provides a comprehensive introduction to Warhol's film-making alongside ten essays on individual films (from canonical classics such as The Chelsea Girls, to sorely neglected titles such as Bufferin) from leading scholars of cinema, art and culture. Drawing on research from the Warhol archives, newly-unearthed images, and original interviews with denizens of the Factory, this book explores the richness and variety of Warhol's films and interrogates accepted perspectives on them – while acknowledging the challenge of ever fully coming to terms with the life and career of this extraordinary artist.

A Companion To Mekas Walden
Author: Scott Hammen
Publisher: Eyewash Books
ISBN: 2958204405
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
A Companion to Mekas Walden is an in-depth guide to Jonas Mekas's film masterpiece. It is designed to enrich the viewer's journey through the cultural ferment of New York City in the 1960s explored by Mekas's film. When Mekas's Diaries, Notes and Sketches also known as Walden, premiered in New York in 1969, it opened a new chapter in the history of artists' film. A new generation suddenly discovered that the film medium was not reserved for the commercial entertainment industry. but could be used by individual artists and poets too. And at the same time Walden was also an invaluable record of a time and place that was the nexus of multiple forms of American art - including music, painting, dance, theater, and poetry. As critic Amy Taubin wrote: "Whenever people ask me what it was like to live in New York in the ’60s, I refer them to Mekas’s Walden…" A Companion to Mekas Walden provides a wealth of information on the film's subjects, not just those, like John Lennon and Andy Warhol, who were already world famous, but also many who have been undeservedly forgotten.

Bande À Part

Book Description
Bande a parte is a collection of photographs taken by those who were the eyes in the darkness, the insiders among the outsiders of art. What distinguishes this group is that they are not professionals in the sense that taking pictures wasn't really a job, it was a compulsion, something they had to do. Billy Name was a major domo at the silver Warhol Factory, Gerard Malanga was a poet and Warhol's painting assistant, Danny Fields was a mover and shaker in the record business, responsible for the management of such talents as Iggy and The Stooges, The Doors and The Ramones. Even those who were photographers by trade were not the kind who waited for assignments, they were self-taught anthropologists who wanted to document their time, their place. And clearly, these pictures tell their stories better than words ever could.

Valerie Solanas
Author: Breanne Fahs
Publisher: The Feminist Press at CUNY
ISBN: 155861849X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 409
Book Description
The authoritative biography of the 60s countercultural icon who wrote SCUM Manifesto, shot Andy Warhol, and made an unforgettable mark on feminist history. Valerie Solanas is one of the most polarizing figures of 1960s counterculture. A cult hero to some and vehemently denounced by others, she has been dismissed but never forgotten. Known for shooting Andy Warhol in 1968 and for writing the infamous SCUM Manifesto, Solanas became one of the most famous women of her era. But she was also diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and spent much of her life homeless or in mental hospitals. Solanas’s SCUM Manifesto, a sui generis vision of radical gender dystopia, predicted ATMs, test-tube babies, the Internet, and artificial insemination long before they existed. It has sold more copies and been translated into more languages than nearly all other feminist texts of its time. And yet, shockingly little work has investigated the life of its author. This book is the first biography about Solanas, including original interviews with family, friends (and enemies), and numerous living Warhol associates. It reveals surprising details about Solanas’s life: the children nearly no one knew she had, her drive for control over her own writing, and her elusive personal and professional relationships. Valerie Solanas reveals the tragic, remarkable life of an iconic figure. It is “not only a remarkable biographical feat but also a delicate navigation of an unwieldy, demanding, and complex life story” (BOMB Magazine).
