Andy Warhol

Born in Pennsylvania to Eastern European parents, Andy Warhol (1928 - 1987) is a major figure in American pop art. A multidisciplinary artist, he was equally at home in painting, sculpture, the literary arts and film. He began his career as an advertising graphic designer for leading fashion magazines, and through this door he entered the world of consumerism. In his art, he reuses the codes he has learned, developing bright colors, silkscreening, repetition and his fascination with images. Exhibited in major museums such as the MOMA, the MET, the Centre Georges Pompidou, etc., his work is sought-after and collected worldwide, making him the 3rd most quantitatively sold artist in the United States in 2023 according to the Artprice report. Some of his works were recently featured in the "Basquiat × Warhol, à quatre mains" exhibition at the Fondation Louis Vuitton in 2023.
