Andy Warhol Photographs

"Death means a lot of money, honey. Death can really make you look like a star." - Andy Warhol

Andy Warhol's 15 minutes of fame has lasted twenty five years. The name "Andy Warhol" is synonymous with "Pop Art." It just wouldn't be the same... without him. He left a huge collection of art behind when he sadly passed away February 22, 1987, after a routine gall bladder surgery procedure. From drawings, paintings and prints to videography, publishing and performance - this man was responsible for producing more than art. He was essentially his own brand.  Warhol said, “A picture means I know where I was every minute. That’s why I take pictures. It’s a visual diary.” From haunting black and white self-portraits to Polaroid snapshots of celebrities, many of the photos in the collection later became the inspiration for Warhol’s most well-known Pop Art works. Warhol’s importance was not just as a painter, but as a multi-disciplinarian of the art world.
