Best known for his work in the Pop art movement, Andy Warhol (b. 1928, Pennsylvania; d. 1987, New York) was an American artist who worked across many mediums such as silk-screening, painting, sculpture, film, and photography. Warhol’s work explored American popular culture, iconography in advertising, and the role of artistic expression in the modern world. Some of his most popular works include his well-known silkscreens of Campbell’s Soup Cans (1962) and portraits of Marylin Monroe (1962, titled Marylin Diptych). His studio in NYC, called the Factory, was also a gathering spot for drag queens, musicians, artists, actors, and free-thinkers, where Warhol explored and encouraged non-traditional artmaking techniques. The mass-production techniques used in his artistic practice mimicked the techniques that large corporations used. As a result, Warhol’s work was controversial, and sparked significant conversations about the status of art in a media-oriented society. His work is currently displayed at The Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburg, the Museum of Modern Art in NYC, the Tate Modern in London, the Whitney Museum of American Art in NYC, among others.
