Andy Warhol was an American visual artist, film director and producer. A leading figure in the pop art movement, Warhol is considered one of the most important American artists of the second half of the 20th century. His works explore the relationship between artistic expression, advertising, and celebrity culture that flourished by the 1960s, and span a variety of media, including painting, silkscreening, photography, film, and sculpture. Some of his best-known works include the silkscreen paintings Campbell's Soup Cans (1962) and Marilyn Diptych (1962), the experimental films Empire (1964) and Chelsea Girls (1966), and the multimedia events known as the Exploding Plastic Inevitable (1966?67).

Kidrobot brings to life the limited-edition Andy Warhol 12-inch Bust Vinyl Art Sculpture ? Dollar Sign Edition. The inspiration for the design of this vinyl designer art toy comes from Andy Warhol?s early 1980s dollar sign print series.
