Andy Warhol Andy Warhol The title of this exhibit is “15 Minutes and Counting.” It featured a variety of popular and exciting works of art from artist Andy Warhol. The title of this work could quite possibly have been a play on Warhol’s popularity with the pop art movement. Andy Warhol was considered to be and categorized as a “pop artist.” This pop art that he was famous for was very loud and untraditional in its composition. Andy explored an easy medium that was accurate when manipulated correctly and produced numerous prints. The medium was sreenprinting. Screen-printing was repetitive and dull so Andy decided to use synthetic polymer paint to spice up the backgrounds and to give each print a different spectrum of color to the uniform prints. One other medium that was skillfully used by Warhol and popular to the public was that of lithography. This was a poster-like look. Herni Toulouse Lautrec first created lithography for artistic purposes. It was originally used for advertisement purposes. In 1891, Lautrec did a lithograph entitled “Moulin Rouge.” This became popular to the people alive in the Art Nouveau period of history. andy, warhol, art, time, popular, way, pop, minutes, medium, works, work, upon, title, purposes, prints, piece, one, lithography, lautrec, jazz, figure, fifteen, felt, famous, exhibit, everyone, entitled, dancing, cultural, created, been, artist, another, andy’s, world
