This book is a catalog published in 1974 at the first large-scale exhibition of Andy Warhol in Tokyo and Kobe Daimaru. Since then, many Warhol exhibitions have been held in Japan, and catalogs have been published each time, but the quality of this book is wonderful. Although it is not a particularly luxurious design, it also has a sense of Warhol in a sense, and the atmosphere of the aluminum foil cover that imagined the silver factory and the texture of the paper and print are also good. There are also 32 representative works (there is also the "Ikebana" series created to coincide with Japan) and photos taken at the factory. According to Warhol's comment when he came to Japan for the solo exhibition, "I went to Tokyo and Kyoto in 1955. Since then, I have been trying to become Japanese. Because simple expressions are really good, I am drawing Japanese flowers, eating Japanese food, wearing Kenzo clothes, and using Japanese photographs, videos, hi-fi and other electronic devices. I like everything. This is my favorite. It's an old basket."
