Andy Warhol (1928-1987) was one of the most influential figures of the Pop Art movement. Born in Pittsburgh to Slovak immigrant parents, he revolutionized modern art by blurring the boundaries between commercial and fine art.
His career began as an advertising illustrator in the 1950s, before becoming the iconic artist we know. He is known for his screen prints of famous people and everyday objects, such as Campbell's soup cans and Coca-Cola bottles.
The Factory, his New York studio, was a creative and meeting place for artists, musicians and other personalities. It was there that he mass-produced his works, challenging notions of originality and authenticity in art.
Warhol worked in a variety of mediums: painting, screen printing, photography, experimental film, and publishing. He also managed the rock band The Velvet Underground and published Interview magazine.
His influence extends far beyond art: he transformed the notion of celebrity and anticipated the age of social media with his famous quote about '15 minutes of fame'. His style and vision continue to influence contemporary art.
