Andy Warhol - Love, Sex, and Desire. 45th Ed. - Taschen

Before Andy Warhol’s rise to the peak of Pop Art, he created seductive drawings celebrating male beauty. His plan to publish these drawings in a book has now been realized. This volume has over 300 of Warhol’s rarely seen, risqué images that highlight the artist’s fascination with the male form, droll humor, and ironic detachment.
