Andy Warhol was an iconic American artist, widely regarded as a leading figure in the Pop Art movement. Known for his exploration of consumer culture and celebrity, his work often blurred the lines between high art and commercialism. Warhol’s use of mass-production techniques, such as silkscreen printing, transformed everyday objects and images—like Campbell’s Soup cans and portraits of Marilyn Monroe—into provocative art that questioned the nature of originality and fame. His studio, The Factory, became a cultural hub where artists, celebrities, and socialites mingled. Warhol’s work remains a lasting influence on contemporary art, and his legacy is celebrated in numerous museums and exhibitions worldwide. He studied at Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh before rising to prominence in New York's art scene.
