Warhol
"Superb...Gopnik persuasively assembles his case over the course of this mesmerising book, which is as much art history and philosophy as it is biography" Kathryn Hughes, The Guardian When critics attacked Andy Warhol's Marilyn paintings as shallow, the Pop artist was happy to present himself as shallower still: He claimed that he silkscreened to avoid the hard work of painting, although he was actually a meticulous workaholic; in interviews he presented himself as a silly naïf when in private he was the canniest of sophisticates.

The Natalie and Irving Forman Collection
"The gift of Natalie and Irving Forman of their stellar art collection of monochrome works of art--161 paintings and sculpture and 127 works on paper--constitutes a remarkable contribution to the permanent collection of the Albright-Knox Art Gallery. It is the single largest gift to be donated at one time to the museum and is particularly noteworthy for its relevance and significance to the Gallery's collection of abstract art. This volume celebrates that magnificent gift, documents the painting and sculpture collection, and marks the exhibition that honors the Formans' generosity, on view at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery May 6-July 3, 2005"--Book jacket.

La più bella estate della mia vita
Tobia, quindici anni, una vita davanti e tanta voglia di viverla. Abita con i suoi genitori a Pistoia, ma passa le vacanze nella casa dei nonni, nell’incantevole isola di Favignana e, come i gabbiani il cui volo ama imitare, sprezzante del pericolo si lancia dalla scogliera più alta, a picco sul mare. Come quella di ogni adolescente, la sua vita è scandita da grandi gioie e grandi dolori: la gita scolastica, il terribile incidente accaduto all’amico del cuore, il diario sul quale scrive i suoi segreti e i suoi pensieri. In sottofondo, le note della musica anni Settanta. Poi, i primi problemi di salute, le visite, le analisi, i viaggi in giro per l’Italia in cerca di qualcuno in grado di formulare una diagnosi. Infine, la cocente verità: una malattia rara, terribile e semisconosciuta. Tobia si sente perso, ma ecco che la vita torna a sorridergli con gli occhi di Margherita, l’amore della sua vita. Lei sa capirlo e sostenerlo. In lei trova la forza di lottare, fino al giorno in cui il destino lo metterà di fronte a una nuova, durissima prova.
