Of all the art books and Street Fighter Strategy guides over the years filled with artwork, this one is the most unique.

| 5. |  | Touch the Art: Pop Warhol's Top (Touch the Art)
from Sterling
Price: $9.95
Customer Review:
This was the first book I purchased for my nephew in the Touch the Art series. The collection of artwork is wonderful, and the "touch" parts of each page are different and ingenious. The problem I have with this book is that while the rhymes with each work are too silly and pandering for anyone but... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

| 8. |  | The Philosophy of Andy Warhol : (From A to B and Back Again)
from Harvest Books
Price: $10.78
Customer Review:
This book was very funny and a great insight on how Andy's mind works.
Some of his philosophy is so far from the norm that when you think about it it actually might work. Its a quick read, seemingly a lot of it is actual transcribed conversations, so some things get a bit monotonous like an... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

| 9. |  | Mark Rothko
from Hatje Cantz Publishers
Price: $54.75
Customer Review:
This is a very fine collection and reflects more than just Rothko's colorfield paintings. There's a bit of biographical information and some nice commentary, but that isn't really the focus here. The beautiful reproductions are the real reason to purchase this book over other Rothko volumes. There... more info | 4.5 / 5.0
