Anecdotal, funny, frank, POPism is Warhol's personal view of the Pop phenomenon in New York in the 1960s.
A cultural storm swept through the 1960s—Pop Art, Bob Dylan, psychedelia, underground movies—and at its center sat a bemused young artist with silver hair: Andy Warhol. Andy knew everybody (from the cultural commissioner of New York to drug-driven drag queens) and everybody knew Andy.
His studio, the Factory, was the place: where he created the large canvases of soup cans and Pop icons that defined Pop Art, where one could listen to the Velvet Underground and rub elbows with Edie Sedgwick and where Warhol himself could observe the comings and goings of the avant-garde.
In the detached, back-fence gossip style he was famous for, Warhol tells all in POPism—the ultimate inside story of a decade of cultural revolution.

      The darling of pop art released these autobiographical portraits in 1975 and 1980, respectively. With his shock of blonde-white hair and unusual art style, you might think these remembrances would be a real freak show, but instead they're remarkably tame and straightforward. "Popism" focuses on that movement and the 1960s, while "Philosophy"is more a personal reflection. Both would fit nicely into art or biography collections.
