To give a quick overview, Andy Warhol was an American artist, native Pittsburgher, and leader in what’s become known as the pop art movement. To get an idea of pop art, it’s an art recognized for its combination of traditional fine art with aspects of modern culture, such as advertisements, comic books, and even video games. One of Andy Warhol’s most prized pieces from the pop art movement is the Campbell’s Soup Can, a work of art consisting of 32 canvases of identical paintings of a Campbell Soup can.
With an emphasis on pop art, The Andy Warhol Museum celebrates and hosts a diverse array of artists year round. It takes pride in its ever-changing interface and consistency in its own redefinition, as well as relationship to contemporary art. At The Andy Warhol Museum, one has a chance to discover and reflect on modern times, in addition to seeing where such modern reflection began. It’s a step into contemporary history and one that is located right here in the beautiful city of Pittsburgh.
Located in the North Side, The Andy Warhol Museum is open from 10AM - 10PM on Fridays, and 10AM - 5PM all other days of the week.
