Title Round John Giorno White Columns 2013 Print Portfolio Screenprint, edition 49/100 18 x 18 inches Estimated Value: $175 Starting Bid: $75 Gift of Cleveland Clinic. More: John Giorno Poet and visual artist John Giorno was born in 1936 in New York City. He attended Columbia University and worked as a stockbroker for a short time before meeting Andy Warhol in 1962. A romantic relationship ensued, and Giorno was featured in Warhol’s first film, Sleep (1963). The influence of pop art and Warhol’s Factory are evident in Giorno’s work, which developed out of verbal collages of appropriated texts drawn from advertising and signage. In 2010, he had his first solo gallery show, Black Paintings and Drawings , which focused on the development of poem painting. He lived in New York City until his death in late 2019.
