Andy Warhol Museum part 1

While we were in Pittsburgh, we decided to check out a "tourist thing" and wound up at the Andy Warhol Museum! This is the guy that highlighted the idea that art is everywhere in the modern world even in something as simple as a can of soup.

Here's the building. It's 7 floors but really not that big inside. Still an impressive collection of stuff.

Click on the "Read more" below!



Everypony sit on Andy Warhol's couch in the lobby!


 Check out the bike-bike hanging on the ceiling. Where do I sit?


 He did this type of thing a bunch, the same-but-different-colors thing.


 Try to imagine how these stools got all tied up. Barfight? Hurricane? Like, magnets, for wood?


 It's cool to look really close and be aware these are actual paintings. Don't touch!


 Who knew? Andy Warhol did taxidermy? Yup.


 Article illustrations. Zoom in and read the article if you're bored.


It says something about "Coloring Parties." Somepony did not read the title it's called "blue" pussy, not orange.


 High school yearbook photo of Andy Warhol. 


Don't you just want to break the glass and sign his high school yearbook?  Easier than inventing a time machine.


 Two Dogs Kissing. Cute.


 Haha nose-picking art.


Good art makes you feel something. Not only is she sitting on the toilet, but the title says she's constipated. I feel uncomfortable.


 Did a 5 year old do this? Just kidding.


 Snake awning. Why did it have to be snakes?


 Cute snake dancing with a hat and cane.


 If this was like a Bat-suit or something it would be more impressive?


Citizenship papers. Should I make a joke about these being here at the request of Trump?


 Uncle Pierre was a cat?


 You think this cat is happy?


Good advise, from a painting.


 Everypony recognize these? Oh THAT Andy Warhol.


 Concrete block? Art! You know his finger touched that!


 There was a lot of art in this museum from another Pop-culture artist, Ai WeiWei. This guy.


 These pictures are made from familiar plastic bricks?!


Busted! Zoom in close enough and I don't see the "Lego" logo on every brick. So these probably aren't real Lego bricks. Sorry Lego, looks like you're still just a toy and not ART.
