"Pop Art and Andy Warhol"

Andy Warhol was born on 1928 in the USA.

He is most famous for being involved in the pop art movement and he was called the Prince of Pop.

When he was young he showed that he was very talented at drawing and painting. He studied commercial art and when he was about 21 he went to New York and worked as an illustrator for some famous magazines like Vogue and Harpar's Bazaar.

In the 1960's Warhol decided to paint daily objects that were mass produced like Coke bottles and Soup cans.

He also started a place called "The Factory"  which was an art studio where he used workers to mass produce prints and posters.

He also liked making silkscreen prints of famous people like Marilyn Monroe and Mick Jagger.
