Andy Warhol was an American painter & major figure in the pop art movement. Warhol was born Andrew Warhola in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States, to Slovakian immigrants of Ruthenian ethnicity. He showed early artistic talent & studied commercial art at the Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh. Upon graduating in 1949, he relocated to New York City & began a successful career in magazine illustration & advertising. He became well-known mainly for his whimsical ink drawings of shoes done in a loose, blotted style. In the 1960s, he started to make paintings of famous American products like Campbells soup cans & Coca-Cola. He switched to silkscreen prints, seeking not only to make art of mass produced items, but to mass produce the art itself. He hired & supervised art workers engaged in making prints, shoes, films & other items at his studio, The Factory, located on Union Square in New York City. The Factory was Warhols studio from 1963 to 1969. It was really a factory manufacturing hats before he took possession of it. Posters Of Andy Warhol
