Annotated Bibliography and Notes

Ergas, G Aimee Artists from Michael Angelo to Maya Lin New York international Thomson publishing company. 1995 Checked 10/9/08
This book gives the basic facts a person needs to know to do a project about Andy Warhol. In this case N.H.D. It gives good quotes, which are useful on the exhibit board or for a play. The book also gives unknown facts; that people would be interested in knowing. For example, Andy Warhol was so mysterious that no one really knows his birthday. Another fact is his parents were immigrants from Czechoslovakia. This book talks a little bit about his child hood. Then it goes in to his young adult life and how he worked for fashion magazines. It goes in to more detail about his artwork and his later work.

This site shows Andy’s self-portrait. His hair is everywhere His hair looks like colored feathers he looks serious. There is a stripe of blue and yellow paint on his eyes. There is a zigzag stripe of blue and green on his mouth, his upper forehead and hair is dark blue the rest of his face is turquoise. I can use this on the exhibit board to show he thought untraditionally and what pop art looks like. On the home page is an image of a boy on a bus pressing his hand to the window at girl looks at him affectionately. There are images of coming up exhibits.

The site has a picture of a Campbell’s soup can with the label pealing off. Then there’s another picture of just part of the label. The last image is of a regular soup can with the lid coming off. This site gives a lot of biographical information. This is good for a side note/
Side bar of the exhibit board. The site talks about the shows he had for his art the site talks about how he was shot but he did not die for the bullet. He still painted afterward. That show s something a person in this case Andy Warhol did in history plus “invent pop art” this site pretty much mentioned most of his life (except his young childhood) and gave the years of the events too.

This site gave many unknown facts. Facts that weren’t in the books I had looked at or the other website. It went in to great detail about his childhood and his sexuality, religion, death films, music and his dramatic works of art. It talks about an illness he had. An individual that got over an illness should be known in most cases. Especially if the illness was serious. (He was shot and survived that is serious and worth being known. This site gave a wide range of facts about Andy Warhol. It talked about his young childhood; it gave the years such as his early career, the 1960s, when he was shot, the 1970 his religious beliefs, how and when he died, it went on to talk about his paintings, films, music, media and books.

This site had a couple facts. This website compared the way Monet painted with the way Warhol painted. For example, Monet used shadows; because they were there in the scene and to show how light changed over time Warhol didn’t use shadows at all Warhol’s paintings show sameness. (Except for the label on the soup cans.) This site also had images of Andy Warhol’s paintings I would use them on the exhibit board. Compare his work to Monet’s work. The site talked about 1961-1962 the years he did the soup cans. For the most part the site is repitive. It did have a list of paintings he did at the bottom of the page. This site had the cow wallpaper I am going to use that on the background of the exhibit board.


Sayre, Henry, Cave paintings to Picasso: the Scoop on50 Art Masterpieces chronicle books LLC San Francisco California2004 checked 10/19/08
On the side of the page there is a time line from1000 B.C. to 2000 A.D there is an asterisks around the 2000 to represent the 1960’s, which is when Andy Warhol painted his artwork. On the second page there is a painting of one of his Campbell’s soup cans the lid is open and the number19c the flavor is Beef Noodle. The first sentence in the book said that Andy Warhol considered a soup can an all American still life. This book focused on the soup phase of Andy’s life that’s what it mainly talked about. The books said people thought his art looked like billboard ads. Andy turned the view of art around. It was useful that it talked about the soup cans in great detail and how he turned art around. That is important to my N.H.D project.
