About Andy Warhol (1928-1987)

Andy Warhol was an American artist, filmmaker, and entrepreneur. Born in 1928, he was a leading figure in the Pop Art movement of the mid-20th century. Warhol is best known for his colorful, bold, and often controversial works that blended art and popular culture. He was particularly famous for his series of Campbell's Soup Cans, Coca-Cola bottles, and Marilyn Monroe portraits, which explored the themes of consumerism, celebrity, and mass production. Warhol was also an innovative and influential figure in the art world, and he is credited with pioneering new techniques and mediums, such as screen printing, that have since become central to modern art. Today, Warhol's works are widely celebrated for their cultural significance, and he remains one of the most famous and influential artists of all time.

Real Reviews from Real Teachers & Parents

See Why Everyone Loves Meet The Masters

We have been enjoying Meet the Masters at Friends Christian School for about 7 years. I am so impressed with the program. It has taught the children not only facts about a particular artist but also a love of art. Many of the students who are not excelling academically find a talent or expression in art that they may not find anywhere else. This builds their self-confidence. I have seen this time and time again. Our MTM teacher has been such an inspiration to our students with her passion and enthusiasm. The way she leads the assembly with slides, hands-on objects, facts, and background of the artist has the kids so intently listening it is amazing. The children are able to recall facts about the artist long after the project, because it is taught in such an interesting and exciting way. Being someone who loves art and creativity I wanted to thank you for this program for our school and thank you for sending a teacher who loves what she does.

We are truly blessed.
