THE VILLAGE VOICE, New York, March 3, 1987
* re. Andy Warhol's death
* Pop artist movement
As most might be aware "The Village Voice" was an American news and culture paper, known for being the country's first alternative newsweekly. It introduced free-form, high-spirited, and passionate journalism into the public discourse a tradition it maintained throughout its 60+ year history.
The top of the ftpg. has a teaser notice concerning the famed pop artist Andy Warhol.
Page 3 has a photo showing Warhol standing in front of his Brillo Boxes. (see image)
Page 14 is entirely taken up with an article on him. He died on Feb. 22. The article is titled: "The Artist, The Artist, and the Pop Star" with a "Self-Portrait, 1967) photo of him.
Andy Warhol, as a leader in the pop art world of that time, was a perfect fit for the readers of the Village Voice.
I suspect this to be an extremely rare item because their was really no reason to save it at the time.
Complete in 140 pages, tabloid-size, folded at the center, nice condition.
Alert: Many issues of The Village Voice contain articles and/or photos which some consider offensive, and are certainly inappropriate for children. Please purchase with discretion.
