For someone who traveled as much as he did, it is a marvel that

Andy Warhol had time to make art. Desperately Seeking Warhol

traces the artist's movements around the globe from international

cultural hotspots like New York, Paris and Rome to lower-

profile burgs such as Carbondale and Montauk - more well

known now, partially as a result of Warhol's involvement.

Relentless in the pursuit of new avenues to create and sell his

work, Warhol set up shop in a dizzying variety of locales, working

for and with other artists, musicians, controversial world leaders

and more. Manhattan features heavily, with detailed maps

exploring Warhol's favorite hangouts across multiple decades.

The maps and location profiles here form a fascinating picture

of a larger-than-life cultural icon whose energy few have

been able to match since.
