Behind the scenes extract from Clive Arrowsmith
“The limo picked us outside our hotel (The Algonquin) and myself, my assistant Willie Christie, Grace Coddington and the model, my muse Anne Schaufuss piled into the back. On the spur of the moment Grace had said, ‘We are going to photograph Andy Warhol.’
I thought to myself and whispered to Willie, ‘Oh, I hope there is a big window as we haven’t brought any lights, it’s just me and my Nikon’s.’ We had planned to shoot Andy and then drive out to Yale University. Grace had arranged for us to photograph Anne with some Baseball players, Andy Warhol and The Factory visit was a late addition to our schedule.
Warhol was a man of few words and wielded an antique polaroid camera and insistently took polaroids which he then dropped on the floor, without looking at them. I said ‘Are you going to open the polaroids Andy? He said, ‘No, I like them to cook because the colour becomes more intense.’ He didn’t want to be photographed alone, but was happy for me to shoot him in background with Anne (who Grace had dressed like a doll complete with a huge lollipop ) and his large stuffed great dane.”
Anne Schaufuss and Andy Warhol, photographed by Clive Arrowsmith for Vogue UK, 1973.
