Born and raised in Pittsburgh, Warhol initially pursued a successful career as a commercial illustrator.
After exhibiting his work in several galleries in the late 1950s, he began to receive recognition as an influential and controversial artist.
His New York studio, The Factory, became a well-known gathering place that brought together distinguished intellectuals, drag queens, playwrights, Bohemian street people, Hollywood celebrities, and wealthy patrons.
He promoted a collection of personalities known as Warhol superstars, and is credited with inspiring the widely used expression "15 minutes of fame.

Taylor Mead's Ass
Taylor Mead's Ass (1964) is a film by Andy Warhol featuring Taylor Mead, consisting entirely of a shot of Mead's buttocks, and filmed at The Factory.
According to Watson's "Factory Made: Warhol and the Sixties", Taylor Mead had achieved a degree of fame that "inspired a backlash.
" One example was a letter to the editors at "The Village Voice" in August 1964 which complained about "films focusing on Taylor Mead's ass for two hours.
"
Mead replied in a letter to the publication that no such film was found in the archives, but "we are rectifying this undersight.
"
Two days later, Warhol shot the "sixty-minute opus that consisted entirely of Taylor Mead's Ass," during which Mead first exhibits a variety of movement, then "appears" to "shove a variety of objects up his ass.
"
The film was Mead's last for Warhol "for more than three years", at the end of 1964, "Mead felt betrayed by Warhol for not showing the film."
The film was described as "seventy-six seriocomic minutes of this poet/actor's buttocks absorbing light, attention, debris" by Wayne Koestenbaum, in "Art Forum".
In his book, "Andy Warhol", Koestenbaum writes "Staring at his cleft moon for 76 minutes, I begin to understand its abstractions: high-contrast lighting conscripts the ass into being a figure for whiteness itself, particularly when the ass merges with the blank leader at each reel's end.
The buttocks, seen in isolation, seem explicitly double: two cheeks, divided in the centre by a dark line.
The bottom's double structure recalls Andy's two-paneled paintings . . . "
