PITTSBURGH, PA.- The Andy Warhol Museum announces the relaunch of DIY Warhol (formerly known as DIY Pop), as an innovative web app that invites users to create digital silkscreen prints inspired by Andy Warhol's artistic process. This interactive web-based experience guides users step-by-step through cropping, exposing, underpainting and virtually pulling a silkscreen to achieve a Warhol-esque Pop Art aesthetic. When finished, users can download and share their creations.

“Thanks to advancements in technology, DIY Warhol is available for free on any device with a modern web browser,” said Derek Palladino, director of digital engagement. “We're thrilled to make this creative experience accessible to everyone and inspire artistic expression.”

In addition to the print-making feature, DIY Warhol offers video tutorials, extended text and links to further educational resources, allowing users to explore the silkscreen printing process from beginning to end.

“Since The Warhol opened its doors in 1994, visitors have been able to create silkscreen prints inspired by Warhol in our art-making studio, The Factory. Now everyone, everywhere can explore Warhol’s silkscreen printing process and claim their own 15 minutes of fame by creating a digital silkscreen print to share with the world,” said Nicole Dezelon, senior director of learning and public engagement.

The DIY Warhol app can be found at diy.warhol.org.

Located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the place of Andy Warhol’s birth, The Andy Warhol Museum holds the largest collection of Warhol’s artworks and archival materials and is one of the most comprehensive single-artist museums in the world. The Warhol is one of the four Carnegie Museums.
