The other was on the book's half-title. It is important to realise that Crone and Warhol together chose the "Bruno B" Self Portrait for the cover of the book and Andy Warhol's signature across the "Bruno B" image on the dust jacket is ...

In the 20 years since his death, Andy Warhol has enjoyed far more than 15 minutes of fame. The man who wove steel wool into golden fleece is the subject of scores of books and films. Media scholars mine his visions. Museums mount retrospectives. Warhol’s market, static for several years, has recently spiked; his 1963 silkscreen "Green Car Crash (Green Burning Car)" fetched $71.7 million last May at Christie’s New York—more than four times the high set six months earlier.   With the surge in popularity and prices most people invested in the Warhol legacy are happy.

Few art historical issues are as contentious, or have as dramatic and immediate effects in the marketplace, as those of attribution and authentication. In fact, lawsuits are so common that many experts require owners to sign a statement promising not to sue before they will even look at a work and offer an opinion. Among those who require such a signed statement is the Andy Warhol Art Authentication Committee, which was set up in 1995 by the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. Still, that didn't stop Joe Simon, a filmmaker who owns a painting that was rejected by the board, from suing ... Read Full Story
