Um, Hello! My name is
Andy. I was born in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, in 1928 . My parents named me Andrew Warhola but during
my climb to fame a New York Times writer misspelled my last name by leaving off an a. I decided I liked the sound of
the new spelling so I kept it and now the world knows me as the great artist
Andy Warhol. If you live in Pittsburgh
too, you may have noticed Warhola recycling and scrapping centers around the
city. That’s my family! But you can get to know me better by
visiting The Warhol Museum on the North Side of Pittsburgh. My museum is filled
with bright colors and vibrant energy.
The museum is where I got to know Ms. Doyle, the very amazing art
teacher from Propel Montour. Ms. Doyle
likes art history and was visiting my museum to learn more about my invention, Pop Art. It was there that she shared
with me her approaching trip to India and I wondered…. What can I collect in a
place like India? You see, I love to
collect things! So then it was decided, I will travel with this wonderful art
teacher and together we will wonder, discover, and collect! Have you ever wondered what things are the same or what things are different about places you have never been to? What do you wonder about India? Maybe we can help you. Post a comment with your wonders below then Ms. Doyle and I will do our best to answer your questions with pictures, blogs,
and videos.
Hope you have a wonderful and inspiring trip to India! Can't wait to see what you collect and your photos along the way! Enjoy!
