For Andy Warhol (1928\u0026ndash;1987), both genuine as well as fake queens slipped into the role of idealized movie-star femininity, devoting their lives to handing down a glittering and sparkling way of life and presenting it to the public for (not all too) close inspection. The volume juxtaposes Warhol\u0026rsquo;s Polaroids of Princess Caroline of Monaco, Farah Diba Pahlavi, and Crown Princess Sonja, now Queen Sonja of Norway, with drag queens, all of whom Warhol characterized as \u0026ldquo;living testimony to the way women used to want to be, the way some people still want them to be, and the way some women still actually want to be.\u0026rdquo; \u003cem\u003eWarhol\u0026rsquo;s Queens\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: HelveticaNeue\"\u003e presents intense faces with exceptionally colored lips, eyes, and hair that serve as sexual fetishes and are too tempting to be resisted. Along with in-depth scholarly essays, this book is a must both for Warhol fans as well as anyone interested in photography and portraiture.\u003c!--?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\" \/--\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45526214115592,"sku":"9783775735452","price":19.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775735452_1cdf726f-8f8c-49cc-a4bb-88ba2a038ab5.jpg?v=1744146779","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/17302-warhols-queens","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
