Join the museum's Time Capsules Cataloguers Erin Byrne, Marie Elia and Elaina Vitale in the Warhol theater as they take the first look inside one of Andy Warhol's unopened boxes.

Born and raised in Pittsburgh, Andy Warhol (1928-1987) was a painter, printmaker and filmmaker who was a leading figure in the visual art movement known as pop art. He was an avid collector of various items, especially the minutiae of his daily life. In 1974, he began filling the first of his 600 Time Capsules with source material, correspondence and clothing.

The Time Capsules reflect more than Warhol's personal life-they act as an insightful snapshot of the time and contain a wealth of information for researchers. For more information, call (412) 237-8300.
