Abstract

The friends are forever involved in the ‘family photo,’” a line by the poet Gerard Malanga, who was a close associate of Andy Warhol during the 1960s, alludes to the dynamic connections that exist between portraits and social interaction. Understood in this broad sense, the line would be a fitting epigraph to the book of 1967 in which it appears, Screen Tests/A Diary, a collaboration by Warhol and Malanga that consists of a collection of stills from film portraits, or “screen tests,” each with a poem on the facing page by Malanga (fig. 1).
