Andy Warhol (b. 1928, Pittsburgh--d. 1987, New York) rose to renown in the early 1960s with his paintings and prints of commercial and public images and figures such as  Marilyn Monroe and Jackie Kennedy to Coca-Cola and Campbell’s Soup. Warhol's work soon became an icon of postwar American Pop Art, only enhanced by his important  role in the Pop Art scene through the Factory, his New York City studio and the site for social and artistic gathering. His immense body of work has been exhibited and collected extensively, from retrospectives at the Tate Modern (2002) and the Whitney Museum of American Art (2018) to the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, PA.
