Born Andrew Warhola in 1928, Andy Warhol’s early roots were blue collar Pittsburgh. After graduating from the Carnegie Institute, he moved to New York City where he found steady work as a commercial artist. In 1956, he had his first group show at MOMA. The 1960’s was a prolific decade for Warhol. Appropriating images from popular culture, he created paintings that remain icons of 20th-century art, such as the Campbell’s Soup Can and Marilyn Monroe screen prints. In addition to painting, Warhol made several 16mm films which have become underground classics. By the late 1960’s, he was the impresario of New York City’s subculture and a central figure of the Pop Art movement. At the start of the 1970s, Warhol began publishing Interview magazine and was firmly established as a major 20th-century artist and international celebrity. Warhol died an untimely death, following routine gall bladder surgery, in 1987. In 1989, MOMA had a major retrospective of his works and in 1994, the Andy Warhol Museum opened in Pittsburgh.
