Popular figures and everyday American objects created a new artistic movement, in which Andy Warhol (1928-1987) was one of the protagonists. The American artist, who began his career as an illustrator in several magazines, became one of the figures of Pop Art. Marilyn Monroe, Coca-Cola bottles, Brillo boxes and Campbell's soup cans were reproduced in series with different colors using the screen printing technique. Giving a new aesthetic order to everyday objects, the American artist analyzes a society submerged in consumerism. His studio, which he called The Factory, has become a center for meetings, artistic production and enjoyment of modern life. In addition to being an artist, he was also a photographer, filmmaker and producer of the famous album with the banana on the cover of the band Velvet Underground.
