Andy Warhol wanted to show the growth of consumerism and commericalism during the late Twentith Century. He would reproduce images on silk screens with different colors and sell them to the degeneralized public for high prices. In reference to Marilyn, she was one of the most iconic women of the 1950s and 1960s, so much so that many actresses in Hollywood at the time tried to immulate her, and she became the central idea of beauty. So Warhol took this massly believed conception and created many prints of the starlet, including the famed turquoise "Marilyn".

By the way - these are paintings, not drawings.

paul and jhon

He graduated from high school and studied commercial art at the Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh. Warhol graduated in 1949

Only Andy Warhol can answear that! But as a see that he was mainly attracted to the beautiful, the troubled and children basically anyone in these three categories.

If Andy Warhol lived, in my opinion, he would paint

beautiful models such as Ann Ward (beautiful, "odd/unique" beauty from Americas Next Stop Model)

People and their "insides" -I think by now Andy would expand his scenery and start painting people with illnesses, as an attempt to raise awareness and stop/ decrease the social stigma of eating disorders, schizophrenia, depression

Religious art- Popes, Priest that have done wrong- I do not now if it is widely known but one book that I was reading for a presentation stated Andy was very religious, he attented church weekly. This was not associted with his public persona. I think Mr. Warhol would have fun dwelling on the corruption and disillution one must experience when the law hurts man. During his later years he did various reproductions of "The Last Supper".

Andy Warhol (officially named Andrew Warhola), was an American painter, printmaker, and filmmaker.

It doesnt have a meaning... it's a banana, Pop art was meant to shock and dismiss watercolours, with it's bright bold colours. Pop artists painted anything and everything that had vibrant colours, often using advertising as inspiration for their art. There wasnt particular reason for the banana, it isnt meant to represent anything other than a banana.

Andy Warhol (Born Andrew Warhola) is famous because of his world known silkscreen artworks such as the Marilyn Diptych and the Campbell's soup can.

He is the father of pop art, creating it and said the famous quote "Everyone will be famous for 15 minutes" and "I want to be a machine".

He is also famous because of his movies like Sleep and Batman Dracula.

Well his artworks revolved around American Pop Culture, he was fascinated with it. He amired people who were famous. Warhol also had an appreciation for intense Hollywood glamour. He once said: "I love Los Angeles. I love Hollywood. They're so beautiful. Everything's plastic, but I love plastic. I want to be plastic."
