1. Art Masterpiece “100 Cans” Andy Warhol (1928 – 1987) Today in Art Masterpiece, we learned about Andy Warhol, the American artist who is considered to be the Father of Pop Art. Warhol began his career as a Commercial Artist but during the 1960’s he began using images from popular culture (i.e., Campbell’s soup cans) and pop icons (i.e., Marilyn Monroe) to create his unique style of art. Warhol often created his works from commercial photos which he enlarged then transferred the image onto a canvas, creating his photo-silkscreen. He then painted strong patches of color to personalize each painting. Mr. Warhol preferred silk screening for it allowed him to “be like a machine” and create the same painting over and over again. In class the students painted their own “Soup” can which has been displayed with the artwork of other students in a “100 Cans” collage.
