  1. Andy Warhol Biography and Achievements Andy Warhol is famous for his American perspective on illustrative modern art. He combined commercialism with visual art display and broke the traditional conventions of fine art. Warhol’s pop art creations are crowning achievements from a lifetime of design and artistry. Born on August 6, 1928, as Andrew Warhola, the artist grew up in an Eastern European household. His parents had emigrated from Slovakia, and settled in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania by the time Warhol was born. His family’s strong cultural ties and heritage shaped his formative years. Education When Andy’s father died in 1942, he promised to honour his father’s wishes for him to attend college. In 1945, Andy was accepted at Carnegie Institute of Technology (presently known as Carnegie- Mellon University). Famous Work The Campbell soup can Andy Warhol painting became his most famous of everyday images. It turned pop art into sought after auction pieces. www.danefineart.com
