Andy Warhol described Christopher Makos as 'The most modern photographer in America'. Makos travelled with Warhol for fifteen years as a friend and colleague. His work is featured in many galleries including Tate Modern and Guggenheim Museum Bilbao.
I asked Andy Warhol to help with a Polaroid ad campaign the 1980s. I was one of the only UK art directors who had approached him.The poster campaign didn't happen but when he was in London, we kept in touch.
After he passed away, I produced the Warhol/Makos a photo-bio of his day- to-day life. The book was my belated thanks to him. |
