Look out for the likes of Madonna, John and Yoko – and, er, Vladimir Putin – as Warhol travels back through time and popular culture" Smallish "As well as spotting Warhol in the throng on each of the 12 double–page spreads, it''s thought–provoking and unexpectedly educational to discover figures such as artist Rachel Whiteread, potter Josiah Wedgwood, novelist Gustave Flaubert and architect/designer Walter Gropius appearing alongside the likes of rappers The Beastie Boys, actor John Travolta and singer Madonna. Well known artworks are also dotted around (think Damien Hirst''s petrified shark, Jean–Michel Basquiat''s signature street graffiti and Warhol''s eponymous soup tins).
