Synopsis

A loosely formed autobiography by Andy Warhol, told with his trademark blend of irony and detachment

In The Philosophy of Andy Warhol--which, with the subtitle "(From A to B and Back Again)," is less a memoir than a collection of riffs and reflections--he talks about love, sex, food, beauty, fame, work, money, and success; about New York, America, and his childhood in McKeesport, Pennsylvania; about his good times and bad in New York, the explosion of his career in the sixties, and his life among celebrities.

produced a significant body of film work, including the famous Chelsea
Girls. Equally well known in the late Sixties and early Seventies as
resident host at his studio, the Factory. Andy Warhol died following gall
bladder surgery, in New York on the 22nd February 1987. As Warhol said: 'I
