His book was put together with the energy and excitement generated by a conference we organized at Duke University in January 1993 called "Re-Reading Warhol: The Politics of Pop." Our first thanks, then, go to the people who were instrumental in making that event happen, and especially to the people who participated in and attended the conference but did not contribute to this collection of essays.

Still, through the completion of the series, these images were significant in explaining who Warhol was as a person and instrumental as one of the last steps to Warhol's full acceptance of his sexuality.Introduction - Jennifer Doyle, Jonathan Flatley, Jose Esteban Munoz While his sexuality was known throughout small circles, Warhol tended to keep it as private as possible. As a result, Warhol began to focus more on LGBTQ material in his art. was becoming more liberal in many aspects, while the gay liberation movement of the 1970s was in full swing. The subjects in the images are captured in various positions and angles, showing off the human body to the viewer. They show different builds, from muscular to soft, hairy to bare. The “Torso” images are taken of predominantly male bodies, focused on the area between the lower bust to the tops of the thighs.

“‘Just tell them it's art, Bob,’” Colacello recounted Warhol telling him. Given the images’ resemblance to nude photos, Warhol labeled them "landscapes" to ensure their place in the art world, according to associate Bob Colacello. The series features multiple anonymous models from gay bathhouses and clubs recruited by Warhol's assistant, Victor Hugo. The tamer and less explicit “Torso” images evoke the tradition of classical nudes, taken on a 35mm camera and a Polaroid Big Shot. The idea for these images came when Warhol was approached by a stranger boasting about the size of his appendage, leading Warhol to photograph said anatomy and put the photos in a box labeled “Sex Parts.” In his 1977 series of polaroid photos, “Sex Parts and Torsos,” Andy Warhol blurred the lines between the worlds of pornography and art, expressing the importance of the human body.
