In the early 1960’s Warhol tried to exhibit some of his artwork, but only to be turned down. In time, he became a very successful career as a commercial illustrator, but after he became famous working as a painter, filmmaker, record producer, author, and public figure. He has also been the subject of numerous retrospective exhibitions, books, and feature and documentary films. As well as painting, Warhol worked in the areas of photography, drawing, and sculpture, but also a highly prolific filmmaker. Between the years 1963 and 1968, he had produced more than sixty films. Today, his work has shown in many galleries and museums like the Museum Of Modern Art. There is also a museum dedicated to him, called The Andy Warhol Museum. One would feel that Andy Warhol changed the way people looked at art. He took pieces of art and manipulated them into something so different but magnificent. Depending on one’s point of view, Andy Warhol can be considered the greatest American artist of the second half of the 20th century. He can also be a cultural transformer. Even though he was the last of his kind to reach the galleries, he soon became better known than the artists before
