    In his autobiography, The Philosophy of Andy Warhol (From A to B and Back Again), Warhol said, “Making money is art and working is art and good business is the best kind of art.” Typical of Warhol, the statement is funny, irreverent, and also an accurate description of his practice; he called his studio the Factory, after all. He was one of the most successful artists of the 20th century because he was hard working, prolific, and had an uncanny ability to identify subjects that resonated, and continue to resonate, with a mass audience. Marilyn Monroe, electric chairs, Mao, Campbell’s Soup cans, flowers, Jackie Kennedy, cows, Coca-Cola, and Liz Taylor – all vie for status as the defining iconic images of his age. This survey of 63 screen prints and five paintings includes examples of all of Warhol’s best-known works.
