Andy Warhol (/ˈwɔːrhɒl/; born Andrew Warhola; August 6, 1928 – February 22, 1987) was an American artist who was a leading figure in the visual art movement known as pop art. His works explore the relationship between artistic expression, celebrity culture, and advertisement that flourished by the 1960s. After a successful career as a commercial illustrator, Warhol became a renowned and sometimes controversial artist. The Andy Warhol Museum in his native city, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, holds an extensive permanent collection of art and archives. It is the largest museum in the United States dedicated to a single artist.
Warhol's art used many types of media, including hand drawing, painting, printmaking, photography, silk screening, sculpture, film, and music. He was also a pioneer in computer-generated art using Amiga computers that were introduced in 1984, two years before his death. He founded Interview magazine and was the author of numerous books, including The Philosophy of Andy Warhol and Popism: The Warhol Sixties. He managed and produced The Velvet Underground, a rock band which had a strong influence on the evolution of punk rock music. He is also notable as a gay man who lived openly as such before the gay liberation movement. His studio, The Factory, was a well known gathering place that brought together distinguished intellectuals, drag queens, playwrights, Bohemian street people, Hollywood celebrities, and wealthy patrons.
A surname or family name is a name added to a given name. In many cases, a surname is a family name and many dictionaries define "surname" as a synonym of "family name". In the western hemisphere, it is commonly synonymous with last name because it is usually placed at the end of a person's given name.
In most Spanish-speaking and Portuguese-speaking countries, two or more last names (or surnames) may be used. In China, Hungary, Japan, Korea, Madagascar, Taiwan, Vietnam, and parts of India, the family name is placed before a person's given name.
The style of having both a family name (surname) and a given name (forename) is far from universal. In many countries, it is common for ordinary people to have only one name or mononym.
The concept of a "surname" is a relatively recent historical development, evolving from a medieval naming practice called a "byname". Based on an individual's occupation or area of residence, a byname would be used in situations where more than one person had the same name.

More than twenty-five years after his death, Andy Warhol (1928-1987) remains one of the most influential figures in contemporary art and culture. His life and work have inspired artists, writers, photographers, and filmmakers, and his own personal cultivation of the art of celebrity has left a legacy on the world to this day. His famous remark that "in the future everyone will be world famous for fifteen minutes" continues to leave its impression on our fame-obsessed world today, from reality TV to Twitter and YouTube. Columbia University, in conjunction with the Brant Foundation, will celebrate Warhol and his legacy of "15 Minutes" of fame with a day-long exhibition of his photography and a public program. This event showcases the University's collection of Polaroids and black-and-white...

Andy Warhol and Edie Sedgwick, the first couple of Pop Art, make a very rare national television appearance on The Merv Griffin Show in October of 1965. A fascinating look at the quirky duo as they subject themselves to a little mainstream scrutiny with some mixed results. Andy, at first takes a vow of silence but eventually warms up enough to grunt a few one-word answers. Merv Griffin had over 5000 guests appear on his show from 1963-1986. Footage from the Merv Griffin Show is available for licensing to all forms of media through Reelin' In The Years Productions. www.reelinintheyears.com.

Like to take a cement fix
Be a standing cinema.
Dress my friends up just for show
See them as they really are.
Put a peephole in my brain
Two New Pence to have a go.
Like to be a gallery
Put you all inside my show.
Andy Warhol, looks a scream,
Hang him on my wall.
Andy Warhol, silver screen
Can't tell them apart at all.
Andy walking, Andy tired,
Andy take a little snooze.
Tie him up when he fast asleep,
Send him on a pleasant cruise.
When he wakes up on the beach
Be sure to think of me and you.
To think and paint, to think about glue,
What a boring thing to do.
