"Andy Warhol's Visual Memory" is a photo book by Andy Warhol, one of the most representative American artists of the 20th century. The camera was an indispensable creative source for Warhol, who was a flagship of pop art. He always carried a camera with him as a sketchbook, a diary, and a means of communication with people, and he used it to store a huge amount of film. Considering the works he created, sometimes using himself as the subject and sometimes quoting someone else's photograph, it can be said that the core of Warhol's work was "photography" and "the act of taking a photograph". This book is a collection of works published on the occasion of an exhibition of the same name held by Swiss dealer Bruno Bischofberger, who worked to collect avant-garde artists in postwar America. It contains a number of photographs taken by Warhol selected by Bruno. Starting with his own self-portraits, and artists such as Basquiat, Keith Haring, Grace Jones, Saint Laurent, and Gaultier, this book is full of Warhol's sense, from the Mona Lisa and fragments of posters that may have inspired his pop art works to street corner snapshots.
