Two Andy Warhol Exhibitions for September
Andy Warhol, the influential American artist, led the pop art movement. His diverse works explored celebrity culture through various media.
Raised in Pittsburgh, he started as a commercial illustrator, gaining recognition for controversial art. His studio, The Factory, attracted intellectuals and celebrities. Warhol’s superstars and “15 minutes of fame” expression left a mark.
He managed The Velvet Underground and founded Interview magazine. As a gay man, he lived openly before the liberation movement.
Warhol survived a shooting but later died from cardiac arrhythmia in 1987.
His legacy lives on through retrospective exhibitions, books, and documentaries. The Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh showcases his extensive collection.
Warhol’s creations are highly collectible, with paintings selling for millions. He’s a bellwether of the art market.

This is an expanded portrait really. It’s a tribute to Mario Montez who I met about three years ago. I met him because I was re-doing Warhol’s screen tests. He had been hidden for 35 years up until fall 2009, and then I found out he was coming out of retirement. He was on my list as somebody that I wanted to do a screen test with. We met and we hit it off.
