Andy Warhol became the central figure in the Pop Art Movement that emerged in the United States in the 1950s and grew in the 1960s. Pop Art became one of the major art movements of the 20th century with its themes and techniques drawn from popular culture.

Warhol, as an artist and an avant-garde filmmaker, became a renowned celebrity whose life was often one of controversy. Today, Warhol’s acclaim as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century is legendary. His art has been the subject of numerous exhibitions and is highly collectible.
