Holy Terror: Andy Warhol Close-Up

I don't think Studio 54 is like pagan Rome. I think it's like junior high school. "In Japan when they say yes they mean no. It's their idea of being polite. It's a pretty good system, except when someone like the wife of the Prime Minister of Canada calls and asks to speak with me and they say yes and hang up." "Diana Vreeland makes the smallest detail important. She makes walking to the drugstore like a trip around the world. And she makes a trip around the world like walking to the drugstore." Catherine Deneuve to Jade Jagger: "Stop that. I don't like you pulling my hair." Jade Jagger to Catherine Deneuve: "Well, my father doesn't like you smoking at table." Muhammad Ali, posing for Andy Warhol: "Do I look fearless?" This is a book of photographs and profiles of his friends by Andy Warhol. Andy Warhol's friends are the stars of rock, fashion, film, society, sports, politics. "My idea of a good picture, " writes Warhol, "is one that's in focus and of a famous person doing something unfamous. It's being in the right place at the wrong time." Only Andy Warhol could be in so many right places at so many wrong times, and only Andy Warhol could bring together these 360 "good pictures, " presenting a unique view of contemporary celebrity life by the most contemporary celebrity of all. Here are Mick, Bianca, and Jade Jagger, Truman Capote, Paulette Goddard, Jacqueline Onassis, Liza Minnelli, Salvador Dali.

In the 1960s, Andy Warhol’s paintings redefined modern art. His films provoked heated controversy, and his Factory was a hangout for the avant-garde. In the 1970s, after Valerie Solanas’s attempt on his life, Warhol become more entrepreneurial, aligning himself with the rich and famous. Bob Colacello, the editor of Warhol’s Interview magazine, spent that decade by Andy’s side as employee, collaborator, wingman, and confidante. In these pages, Colacello takes us there with Andy: into the Factory office, into Studio 54, into wild celebrity-studded parties, and into the early-morning phone calls where the mysterious artist was at his most honest and vulnerable. Colacello gives us, as no one else can, a riveting portrait of this extraordinary man: brilliant, controlling, shy, insecure, and immeasurably influential. When Holy Terror was first published in 1990, it was hailed as the best of the Warhol accounts. Now, some two decades later, this portrayal retains its hold on readers—as does Andy’s timeless power to fascinate, galvanize, and move us.

Written by a former editor of Warhol's celebrity-celebrating Interview magazine and packed with names, this hard-hitting memoir presents an insider's look at the "Pope of Pop Art," Andy Warhol (1928-1987), whose eclectic oeuvre is comparable to Picasso's or Pollock's in its impact on modern art and culture. While examining Warhol's personality, struggles, and achievements, this book presents its subject with a clarity that is both unsparing and compassionate, disillusioned and inspired. Holy Terror invites readers to revisit the sex, drugs, parties, discos, and New York art scene that dominated the 1970s and 1980s. Colacello's memoir is an acutely perceived portrait of the artist who radicalized the ways in which society views art.

The restaurant Indochine has gone from trendsetting pioneer in the mid-1980s to established scene-maker in the 1990s, to the iconic status it holds today. With spectacular images presented by some of the most renowned photographers, celebrities, and writers, Indochine celebrates twenty-five years of being an important legacy in New York’s downtown social swirl, where celebrities rub elbows with downtown hipsters, uptown moguls mix with East Village club kids, and fashion designers with artists and gallery owners. Vintage photographs from the 1980s and ’90s are mixed with contemporary collages and Polaroids taken during Indochine’s most notorious private parties. Stories by Salman Rushdie, Moby, Julianne Moore, and Bob Colacello are combined with photographs by Patrick McMullan, Roxanne Lowit, and Patrick Demarchelier, along with artworks by Francesco Clemente, Helmut Lang, Tom Sachs, Ruben Toledo, Narciso Rodriguez, Ross Bleckner, and Julian Schnabel, among many more.
