"I spent four days with Andy and the gang at The Factory and in the streets. It was a lark. While Andy was everywhere, he was nowhere to be found on the political lines of protest and concern. He floated around it as if its existence was not any issue he was concerned about." —Larry Fink
Fink on Warhol collects photographs of Andy Warhol and his tribe taken within a time span of just four or five days in the spring of 1966 by Fink, working on assignment for the literary magazine East Side Review. The East Side Review closed before Fink’s photographs ran; they are published here for the first time.
"Larry Fink and Andy Warhol could hardly be more different as cultural commentators of the 1960s, and their encounter is a revel in the contrast between the politically engagé Fink and the not-so engagé Warhol....One can envision Warhol and his fashionable friends gliding onto Fink's stage like an eclipse of exotic moths, fluttering, fanning and posing. They were completely incomprehensible to Fink amidst the escalations of the Civil Rights Movement and the Vietnam War, and the attendant rallies and protests." —Kevin Moore
