Andy Warhol Photographs

Photography played a vital role in Andy Warhol's artistic process, both as a source for his iconic silkscreen prints and as a medium in its own right. From candid snapshots to formal portraits, Warhol documented the vibrant social scene around him, capturing celebrities, artists and cultural figures. His Polaroid portraits, with their distinct, instant quality, became a signature format, often serving as the basis for his painted works. Warhol's photography, including his stitched photographic collages, revealed his fascination with repetition and the constructed nature of celebrity image. Today, these photographs offer an intimate glimpse into Warhol’s world and artistic vision.
