    Summary: 
    "The Many Lives of Andy Warhol is more than a biography: it's a look into Warhol's greatest creation: himself. Stuart Lenig takes us behind the scenes to explore Warhol's many innovations in the art world. Warhol was a titanic technician, making art from new techniques. He pioneered the artful use of 16 mm film. He recorded countless conversations creating reality tapes of people unguarded. He transformed stark tabloid graphics into violent prints of disaster. He manipulate cheap publicity photos into death masks, iconic avatars. He drenched later paintings with thick strokes of expressionistic acrylic layers, He collected the rare and the kitsch. He massaged cheap and profane advertising images into the lured and popular covers for Interview. He made the MTV jump cut the format for his talk show. He turned common shoe designs into whimsical graphics. Finally, he transformed a deceased Marilyn Monroe into a haunting icon. An introduction and ten chapters take readers through studies of the many lives of the artist as a performer, director, writer, technologist, printmaker, caricaturist, and critic of the art scene. In Warhol's work we learn that the importance of the ancient and the contemporary form guided his renderings of the human form and his insights into contemporary society. The Many Lives of Andy Warhol reveals Warhol's life and art in new ways provides exceptional insights into the artist at work."-- Publisher.
