The Andy Warhol Museum
The largest single-artist museum in America, with seven floors that fully present Andy Warhol, the father of Pop Art and a Pittsburgh native.
The museum was converted from a warehouse. It holds Warhol's paintings, screen prints, films, photographs and extensive Time Capsule archives. It is best to visit from the top floor down, in chronological order. The 'Silver Clouds' room is filled with floating silver balloons, and the screen-printing studio in the basement lets you try the process yourself. Tickets cost about US$25. The museum is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays, so check the official website. It is in the North Shore area, about a 10-minute walk from downtown over the Andy Warhol Bridge.
