The Andy Warhol Museum is home to over 400 Warhol films, from the early minimal masterpieces Sleep and Blow Job to the later epic work The Chelsea Girls along with the short portraits known collectively as Screen Tests. The museum also houses the entire Andy Warhol Video Collection – over 2,300 videotapes which include all episodes and outtakes of his television series Fashion, Andy Warhol’s T.V., and Andy Warhol’s Fifteen Minutes, the soap operas Vivian’s Girls, Phoney, and Fight, and the large body of work known as Factory Diaries.

The film and video collection is critical to understanding the artist Andy Warhol. From the time he obtained his first film camera in 1963 until his death in 1987, Warhol actively explored the moving image, creating epic films, personal portraits, cable television shows, and music videos. His films and video capture the rich and raw texture of the fertile cultural milieu in which he lived and worked.

The museum

The museum’s collection includes works from the artist’s entire artistic output—from 1940s student work to 1980s collaborations. Our seven-story museum devotes four floors to showcasing an ever-changing selection of Warhol’s artwork, as well as features a permanent film and video gallery for viewing individual Warhol films and videos. One floor is devoted to the museum’s archives collection, and another is reserved for rotating exhibitions of deep dives into the museum’s collection or showcasing contemporary artists that resonate with Warhol. The ground floor continuously shows Fifteen Minutes Eternal, a twenty-minute introductory film, and the underground includes The Factory education studio and the museum’s conservation lab.
