Andy Warhol / Andrew Warhol (1928-1987). He is rightly ranked among the most influential artists of the late 20th century. He is the founder of so-called pop art. He was born in the USA to Slovak emigrants. He changed his name after it was garbled in a magazine. As one of the first, he began to use photos as the basis for his paintings and drawings. This enabled him to repeat some motives in his paintings. He never allowed his personality to be reflected in his works - he was cold and aloof (his works do not contain elements of direct communication) and with a grain of salt, we can say he turned himself into a brand. Warhol did little himself, preferring to issue orders and dodge responsibility. Typical for him was an endless tolerance for human action. Marilyn. A series of images created from photographs. He colorized photos in many different ways and achieved distinctive effects by shifting the colours of some areas in layers (for example, the lips or eye shadow). He was able to change the overall facial expression of Marilyn. Incidentally, he was criticized for this by feminists and one even shot at him from a pistol. His series of posters advertising Campbell soup was also successful.
