Andy Warhol was good friends and collaborator with 20th century pop artist Keith Haring.
Andy Warhol's real name is 'Andrew Warhola' born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, August 6, 1928 and died at his prime age of only 59 years old on February 22, 1987 from medical complications after a gall bladder operation.
In 1945 Andy Warhol entered the Carnegie Institute of Technology (now Carnegie Mellon University) where he majored in pictorial design. Upon graduation, Andy Warhol moved to New York where he found steady work as a commercial artist.
Andy Warhol worked as an illustrator for several magazines including Vogue, Harper's Bazaar and The New Yorker; he did advertising and window displays for retail stores such as Bonwit Teller and I. Miller.
Prophetically, his first assignment was for Glamour magazine for an article titled "Success is a Job in New York."
The 1960's were an extremely prolific decade for Andy Warhol as he created many paintings that remain icons of 20th-century art, such as the famed Campbell's Soup Can paintings.
Andy Warhol also made several 16mm films which made him an avant-garde filmmaker and his films have become underground classics such as Chelsea Girls, Empire and Blow Job.
In 1968, Valerie Solanas, founder and sole member of SCUM (Society for Cutting Up Men) walked into Warhol's studio, known as the Factory, and shot the artist.
The shooting attack was nearly fatal.
In his honor the Andy Warhol Museum opened in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in May 1994.
