Andy Warhol was born in Pittsburgh in 1928, living there until he went to New York in his 20s to find fame and fortune. After his death he was returned to Pittsburgh for burial along with the other members of his family.

Situated over 7 floors and 88,000 square feet, there are hundreds of paintings and thousands of photographs throughout on display and in the archives, covering his work chronologically starting with his earliest work on the 7th floor.
