Warhol, Andy (1928–87) US painter, printmaker, and film-maker, innovator of
pop art. Warhol achieved immediate fame with his stencil pictures of Campbell's soup cans and his sculptures of Brillo soap pad boxes (1962). In 1965, he gave up art to manage the rock group
The Velvet Underground. He continued to make films, which often have a voyeuristic quality.
