After Warhol’s death The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc. was founded to promote the “advancement of visual arts.” The Andy Warhol Museum was announced in 1989 and opened in Pittsburgh in 1994.

The museum also houses the entire Andy Warhol Video Collection – over 2500 videotapes which include all episodes and outtakes of his television series Fashion, Andy Warhol’s T.V., and Andy Warhol’s Fifteen Minutes, the soap operas Vivian’s Girls, Phoney, and Fight, and the large body of work known as Factory Diaries.

The Andy Warhol Museum tells Andy Warhol’s story and explores his legacy through the largest collection of Warhol art and archives in the world.

Located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the place of Andy Warhol’s birth, The Andy Warhol Museum holds the largest collection of Warhol’s artworks and archival materials. We are one of the most comprehensive single-artist museums in the world and the largest in North America.

Andy Warhol’s Index (Book) is truly a mixed bag of genius and a precursor to the multimedia platforms of today. The first of several books to defy the definition of a book, this seminal publication has been called a “children’s book for hipsters.”

As a lifelong artist and educator, as well as an experienced arts administrator, programmer, and community convener, I am thrilled to return to my hometown of Pittsburgh as the new director of The Andy Warhol Museum.
