Andy Warhol (1928–1987, USA) is considered the superstar of Pop Art. With his iconic silkscreens of Marilyn Monroe, Campbell’s soup cans, and Coca-Cola bottles, he blurred the boundaries between high culture and mass culture. Warhol presented art as a mirror of a society shaped by media, consumerism, and surfaces. His New York “Factory” became a hub for artists, musicians, and actors—and Warhol himself became an icon.
