The Brooklyn Bridge
Andy Warhol (1930-1987)

Andy Warhol was an American painter, printmaker, and avant-garde filmmaker, as well as a leading figure in the Pop Art movement. Running in diverse social circles, Warhol became an icon among bohemians, distinguished intellectuals, Hollywood celebrities, and wealthy aristocrats alike. He also coined the expression,"15 minutes of fame.”

Andy Warhol’s The Brooklyn Bridge was created in 1983 as one of four 38 by 38 inch signed silkscreen prints for the Special Commission for the Centennial Celebration. It was acquired directly from the artist on February 15, 1984.
