Unknown Local Artist Finally Earns Long-Deserved Recognition
Andrew Warhola, the iconoclastic icon of repurposed icons and spawn of this city’s steel-lined loins, has moved to the top of the global art market. His 1963 work, Green Car Crash, is expected to sell for a whole lot of money.
Frankly, it’s about time. Pittsburgh has suffered long enough under the yoke of major metropolitan artists and their New York swagger. I, for one, am glad that our city’s practically unknown artist and his voluminous work finally get the recognition they deserve.
Make sure you get your absentee bids in soon! The Christie’s auction starts on May 17th.
