At the age of eight, Warhol had a streptococcal infection that led to scarlet fever.{{Sfn|Gopnik|2020|p=23}} Because there were no antibiotics to treat the illness it progressed to rheumatic fever and ultimately the neurological condition Sydenham's chorea, sometimes referred to as St. Vitus' Dance.{{Sfn|Gopnik|2020|p=23}} At times he was confined to bed and made to remain home from school. He would spend these days drawing, creating scrapbooks from Hollywood magazines, and cutting out images from comic books that his mother bought him.{{Sfn|Gopnik|2020|pp=26-27}} He also enjoyed using the family's Kodak Baby Brownie Special camera, and after noticing his passion for photography, his father and brothers built a darkroom in the basement for him.{{Sfn|Gopnik|2020|p=26}}

Gallerist Alexander Iolas is credited with discovering Warhol. He organized his first solo exhibition, Andy Warhol: Fifteen Drawings Based on the Writings of Truman Capote, at the Hugo Gallery in New York in 1952.{{Sfn|Gopnik|2020|p=131}}{{Cite web |last=Baboulias |first=Yiannis |date=August 9, 2017 |title=The Man Who Discovered Warhol |url=https://www.frieze.com/article/man-who-discovered-warhol |access-date=April 11, 2024 |website=frieze |language=en}}

His use of tracing paper and ink allowed him to repeat the basic image and also to create endless variations on the theme. American photographer John Coplans recalled that "nobody drew shoes the way Andy did. He somehow gave each shoe a temperament of its own, a sort of sly, Toulouse-Lautrec kind of sophistication, but the shape and the style came through accurately and the buckle was always in the right place. The kids in the apartment [which Andy shared in New York – note by Coplans] noticed that the vamps on Andy's shoe drawings kept getting longer and longer but [Israel] Miller didn't mind. Miller loved them."{{Citation needed|date=January 2025}}

At a time when traditional artists did not buy the work of other artists, Warhol collected them.{{Sfn|Warhol|Hackett|1980|p=14}} In order to survive, gallery artists typically did commercial work, such as window displays, and avoided using their real names because it was frowned upon. In contrast, Warhol gained recognition as a commercial artist, which caused tension with other artists.{{Sfn|Warhol|Hackett|1980|p=14}}

This period was a key moment in the development of his persona. Some have suggested that his frequent refusal to comment on his work, to speak about himself (confining himself in interviews to responses like "Um, no" and "Um, yes", and often allowing others to speak for him)—and even the evolution of his pop style—can be traced to the years when Warhol was first dismissed by the inner circles of the New York art world.{{Cite book |last=Fairbrother |first=Trevor |title=Success Is a Job in New York: the Early Art and Business of Andy Warhol |date=1989 |publisher=Grey Art Gallery and Study Center |isbn=978-0-934349-05-5 |editor-last=De Salvo |editor-first=Donna |location=New York |pages=55–74 |chapter=Tomorrow's Man |oclc=19826995}}

In December 1962, New York City's Museum of Modern Art hosted a symposium on pop art, during which artists such as Warhol were attacked for "capitulating" to consumerism. Critics were appalled by Warhol's open acceptance of market culture, which set the tone for his reception.{{Cite book|last=Lacey|first=Joann|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=mscWEAAAQBAJ&pg=PA624|title=History of Art and Architecture: Volume Two|date=January 23, 2021|publisher=Sugar Creek|pages=624|language=en}}

In 1963, Warhol formed The Druds, a short-lived avant-garde noise band that included notable figures from the New York minimal art and proto-conceptual art scenes, including Larry Poons, La Monte Young, Walter De Maria, Jasper Johns, Claes Oldenberg, and Lucas Samaras.

Warhol used assistants to increase his productivity and these collaborations would remain a defining and controversial aspect of his working methods throughout his career.

In April 1987, the New York State Health Department released a report that Warhol was given inadequate care by New York Hospital from the time he was admitted until the hours before his death. These included not performing the appropriate work-up tests prior to surgery, giving Warhol antibiotics to which he may have experienced an allergic response, causing him to become overhydrated, and repeatedly failing to take accurate notes on his chart. There were no issues with the procedure itself, according to the report. In response, the hospital dismissed the private nurse who had been employed to care for Warhol and penalized the staff nurse who had been tasked with overseeing her.{{Cite web |last=Cullen |first=Bernard |date=April 15, 1987 |title=The city medical examiner said Wednesday Andy Warhol's heart... |url=https://www.upi.com/Archives/1987/04/15/The-city-medical-examiner-said-Wednesday-Andy-Warhols-heart/1531545457600/ |access-date=2025-04-12 |website=UPI |language=en}} However, the hospital claimed that the nursing deficiencies were not significant enough to cause Warhol's death.

In December 1991, Warhol's family sued the hospital in the New York Supreme Court for inadequate care, before judge Ira Gammerman, saying that the arrhythmia was caused by improper care and water intoxication.{{cite news|last=Sullivan |first=Ronald |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1991/12/05/nyregion/care-faulted-in-the-death-of-warhol.html |title=Care faulted in the death of warhol |work=The New York Times |date=December 5, 1991 |access-date=August 14, 2010}} The malpractice case was quickly settled out of court; Warhol's family received an undisclosed sum of money.{{cite news |url=https://www.orlandosentinel.com/1991/12/24/andy-warhol-heirs-settle-lawsuit-with-hospital-over-artists-death/ |title=Andy Warhol Heirs Settle Lawsuit With Hospital Over Artist's Death |work=Orlando Sentinel |date=December 24, 1991 |access-date=December 4, 2013 |archive-date=November 29, 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141129052112/http://articles.orlandosentinel.com/1991-12-24/news/9112240841_1_warhol-york-hospital-gallstones |url-status=live }}

Prior to his surgery, doctors expected Warhol to survive, though a re-evaluation of the case about thirty years after his death showed many indications that Warhol's surgery was in fact riskier than originally thought.{{cite news |last1=Gobnik|first1=Blake |title=Warhol's Death: Not So Simple, After All |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/21/arts/design/andy-warhols-death-not-so-routine-after-all.html |website=The New York Times |date=February 21, 2017 |access-date=February 22, 2017 | url-status = live | archive-date = February 22, 2017 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20170222054611/https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/21/arts/design/andy-warhols-death-not-so-routine-after-all.html?action=click&contentCollection=U.S.&module=Trending&version=Full®ion=Marginalia&pgtype=article }} It was widely reported at the time that Warhol had died of a "routine" surgery, though when considering factors such as his age, a family history of gallbladder problems, his previous gunshot wound, and his medical state in the weeks leading up to the procedure, the potential risk of death following the surgery appeared to have been significant.

By the beginning of the 1960s, pop art was an experimental form that several artists were independently adopting; some of these pioneers, such as Roy Lichtenstein, would later become synonymous with the movement. Warhol, who would become famous as the "Pope of Pop", turned to this new style, where popular subjects could be part of the artist's palette. His early paintings show images taken from cartoons and advertisements, hand-painted with paint drips. Those drips emulated the style of successful abstract expressionists such as Willem de Kooning.

From these beginnings, he developed his later style and subjects. Instead of working on a signature subject matter, as he started out to do, he worked more and more on a signature style, slowly eliminating the handmade from the artistic process. Warhol was an early adopter of the silkscreen printmaking process as a technique for making paintings. His later drawings were traced from slide projections. Warhol had several assistants through the years, including Gerard Malanga, Ronnie Cutrone, and George Condo, who produced his silkscreen multiples, following his directions to make different versions and variations.{{sfn|Colacello|1990|p=28}}{{Cite web |last=Amadour |date=February 15, 2023 |title=15 Minutes with George Condo |url=https://lamag.com/art/15-minutes-with-george-condo |access-date=September 9, 2023 |website=LAmag – Culture, Food, Fashion, News & Los Angeles |language=en}}

Warhol's first pop art paintings were displayed in April 1961, serving as the backdrop for New York Department Store Bonwit Teller's window display.Smith, Patrick S (1986). Andy Warhol's Art and Films; UMI Research Press; p.98; {{ISBN|978-0-8357-1733-5}} For his first major exhibition in 1962, Warhol painted his famous cans of Campbell's soup, which he claimed to have had for lunch for 20 years.{{Cite web |title=Campbell's Soup Cans |url=https://bng.bm/art/campbells-soup-cans/ |access-date=2025-04-13 |website=Bermuda National Gallery |language=en}} Warhol began to make paintings of iconic American objects such as dollar bills, mushroom clouds, electric chairs, cans, Coca-Cola bottles, and celebrities such as Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley and Elizabeth Taylor, as well as newspaper headlines. His work became popular and controversial. Warhol had this to say about Coca-Cola:

{{Blockquote|text=What's great about this country is that America started the tradition where the richest consumers buy essentially the same things as the poorest. You can be watching TV and see Coca-Cola, and you know that the President drinks Coca-Cola, Liz Taylor drinks Coca-Cola, and just think, you can drink Coca-Cola, too. A Coke is a Coke and no amount of money can get you a better Coke than the one the bum on the corner is drinking. All the Cokes are the same and all the Cokes are good.{{Cite book |first=Andy |last=Warhol |title=The philosophy of Andy Warhol: from A to B and back again |publisher=Harcourt Brace Jovanovich |location=San Diego}}}} In 1962, Warhol created his famous Marilyn series. The Flavor Marilyns were selected from a group of fourteen canvases in the sub-series, each measuring 20" x 16". Some of the canvases were named after various candy Life Savers flavors, including Cherry Marilyn, Lemon Marilyn and Licorice Marilyn. The others are identified by their background colors.{{Cite web |title=Marilyn |url=https://richardpolskyart.com/rpaa-andy-warhol-catalogue-raisonne-addendum/catalogue-listings/marilyn-2/ |access-date=November 16, 2021 |website=Richard Polsky Art Authentication |language=en-US}}

Warhol produced both comic and serious works; his subject could be a soup can or an electric chair. Warhol used the same techniques—silkscreens, reproduced serially, and often painted with bright colors—whether he painted celebrities, everyday objects, or images of suicide, car crashes and disasters, as in the 1962–63 Death and Disaster series.{{cite web |url=http://www.sothebys.com/content/sothebys/en/news-video/blogs/all-blogs/contemporary/2013/11/record-warhol-leads-.html |title=Record Warhol Leads Contemporary Sale |website=Sotheby's |date=November 14, 2013 |access-date=December 4, 2013 |archive-date=January 15, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150115022939/http://www.sothebys.com/content/sothebys/en/news-video/blogs/all-blogs/contemporary/2013/11/record-warhol-leads-.html |url-status=live }}

I'd watch him at many museum and gallery openings of his shows, and he followed that policy consistently," said Johnson.

His Rorschach inkblots are intended as pop comments on art and what art could be. His cow wallpaper (wallpaper with a cow motif) and oxidation paintings (canvases prepared with copper paint that was then oxidized with urine) are also noteworthy in this context. Equally noteworthy is the way these works—and their means of production—mirrored the atmosphere at Andy's New York "Factory". Former Interview editor Bob Colacello provides some details on Andy's "piss paintings":

{{blockquote|Victor ... was Andy's ghost pisser on the Oxidations. He would come to the Factory to urinate on canvases that had already been primed with copper-based paint by Andy or Ronnie Cutrone, a second ghost pisser much appreciated by Andy, who said that the vitamin B that Ronnie took made a prettier color when the acid in the urine turned the copper green. Did Andy ever use his own urine? My diary shows that when he first began the series, in December 1977, he did, and there were many others: boys who'd come to lunch and drink too much wine, and find it funny or even flattering to be asked to help Andy "paint."{{sfn|Colacello|1990|p=343}}|sign=|source=}}

Artist Maurizio Cattelan describes that it is difficult to separate daily encounters from the art of Andy Warhol: "That's probably the greatest thing about Warhol: the way he penetrated and summarized our world, to the point that distinguishing between him and our everyday life is basically impossible, and in any case useless." Warhol was an inspiration for Cattelan's magazine and photography compilations, such as Permanent Food, Charley, and Toilet Paper.Spector, Nancy. Maurizio Cattelan: All.

Despite being most known for his work in printmaking, particularly silkscreen, Warhol was also a very skilled illustrator and draughtsman. His early drawings on paper provide a feeling of ease and immediacy since they have similarities to both blind contour and continuous line drawing techniques. Warhol pioneered the blotted line technique, which combined aspects of printmaking and graphite drawing on paper, while he was working in commercial advertising. The drawings from his last years demonstrate the skill and technique that have been refined over the course of his illustrious career.{{Cite web |last=Network |first=Artnet Gallery |date=April 18, 2023 |title=Spotlight: A New Exhibition of Andy Warhol's Late-Career Drawings Reveals His Enduring Passions, From Fashion to the Animal Kingdom |url=https://news.artnet.com/buyers-guide/spotlight-long-sharp-gallery-andy-warhol-life-well-drawn-2286832 |access-date=April 19, 2023 |website=Artnet News |language=en-US}}

Warhol was a fan of "Business Art", as he stated in his book The Philosophy of Andy Warhol from A to B and Back Again. "I went into business art. I wanted to be an art business man or a business artist. Being good in business is the most fascinating kind of art," he said. His transformation into a mere business artist was a point of criticism.{{Cite news |last=Raymond |first=John |date=August 31, 1975 |title=Business Artist Gives the Business |url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-atlanta-constitution-the-philosophy/148668672/ |access-date=June 4, 2024 |work=The Atlanta Constitution |pages=12–C}} In hindsight, however, some critics have come to view Warhol's superficiality and commerciality as "the most brilliant mirror of our times", contending that "Warhol had captured something irresistible about the zeitgeist of American culture in the 1970s."

In addition to his paintings and drawings, Warhol directed and produced films, managed the Velvet Underground, and authored numerous books, as well as producing works in such diverse media as audio, photography, sculpture, theater, fashion and performance art. His ability to blur the lines between art, commerce, and everyday life was central to his creative philosophy.

Warhol attended the 1962 premiere of the static composition by La Monte Young called Trio for Strings and subsequently created his famous series of static films. Filmmaker Jonas Mekas, who accompanied Warhol to the premiere, claims Warhol's static films were directly inspired by that performance.{{cite book|first=Uwe |last=Husslein |title=Pop goes art: Andy Warhol & Velvet Underground |publisher=Wuppertal |year=1990 |oclc=165575494}}{{Page needed|date=August 2010}} Between 1963 and 1968, Warhol made more than 600 underground films, including short black-and-white "screen test" portraits of Factory visitors.Schaffner (1999), p. 73.

A fan of the Batman series, Warhol's movie was an "homage" and is considered the first appearance of a blatantly campy Batman. The film was until recently thought to have been lost, until scenes from the picture were shown at some length in the 2006 documentary Jack Smith and the Destruction of Atlantis.

Warhol's 1965 film Empire is an eight-hour view of the Empire State Building, and shortly after he released Vinyl (1965), an adaptation of Anthony Burgess' popular dystopian novel A Clockwork Orange. Other films record improvised encounters between Factory regulars such as Brigid Berlin, Viva, Edie Sedgwick, Candy Darling, Holly Woodlawn, Ondine, Nico and Jackie Curtis. The underground artist Jack Smith appears in the film Camp.

Warhol's most popular and critically successful film was Chelsea Girls (1966). It was the first underground film of the 1960s to reach widespread popularity and capture the attention of notable film critics. The film was highly innovative in that it consisted of two 16 mm-films being projected simultaneously, with two different stories being shown in tandem. From the projection booth, the sound would be raised for one film to elucidate that "story" while it was lowered for the other. The multiplication of images evoked Warhol's seminal silkscreen works of the early 1960s.

The 1969 film Blue Movie—in which Warhol superstars Viva and Louis Waldon make love in bed—was Warhol's last film as director.{{cite news |last=Canby |first=Vincent |author-link=Vincent Canby |title=Movie Review – Blue Movie (1968) Screen: Andy Warhol's 'Blue Movie' |url=https://www.nytimes.com/movie/review?res=9507E5D91738E63ABC4A51DFB1668382679EDE |date=July 22, 1969 |work=The New York Times |access-date=December 29, 2015 }}{{cite news |last=Canby |first=Vincent |author-link=Vincent Canby |title=Warhol's Red Hot and 'Blue' Movie.

File:Flesh (1968) Joe Dallesandro and Louis Waldon (1200 dpi).jpg in Flesh (1968), directed by Paul Morrissey]]

In the wake of the 1968 shooting, Warhol's assistant director, Paul Morrissey, took over most of the film-making chores for the Factory collective, steering Warhol-branded cinema towards more mainstream, narrative-based, B-movie exploitation fare with Flesh (1968), Trash (1970) and Heat (1972). All of these films, including the later Andy Warhol's Dracula (1973) and Andy Warhol's Frankenstein (1974), were far more mainstream than anything Warhol as a director had attempted. Joe Dallesandro starred in these latter films, which are now considered cult classics. The last Warhol-produced film, Bad, starred Carroll Baker and was made without either Morrissey or Dallesandro.{{Cite web |last=Horne |first=Jed |date=September 27, 1976 |title=Andy Warhol Thinks Everybody and Everything Is 'Great' Except His Latest Movie—it's 'Bad' |url=https://people.com/archive/andy-warhol-thinks-everybody-and-everything-is-great-except-his-latest-movie-its-bad-vol-6-no-13/ |access-date=April 7, 2024 |website=People |language=en}} It was directed by Warhol's boyfriend Jed Johnson, who had assisted Morrissey on several films.

Most of the films directed by Warhol were pulled out of circulation by Warhol and the people around him who ran his business. With assistance from Warhol in 1984, the Whitney Museum and the Museum of Modern Art began to restore his films, which are occasionally shown at museums and film festivals.{{Cite web |title=Andy Warhol Film Project |url=https://whitney.org/research/andy-warhol-film-project |access-date=April 8, 2024 |website=whitney.org |language=en}} In 2022, the Andy Warhol Museum announced the launch of The Warhol TV, a streaming platform that allows users to watch free museum content and to rent a selection of Warhol's films from its collection.{{Cite web |last=ArtDependence |date=March 29, 2022 |title=The Warhol Museum Launches Warhol TV, an Online Streaming Platform |url=https://artdependence.com/articles/the-warhol-museum-launches-warhol-tv-an-online-streaming-platform/ |access-date=November 9, 2024 |website=artdependence.com |language=en}}

In 1965, Warhol adopted the band the Velvet Underground, making them a crucial element of the Exploding Plastic Inevitable multimedia performance art show. Warhol, with Paul Morrissey, acted as the band's manager, introducing them to Nico (who would perform with the band at Warhol's request). While managing the Velvet Underground, Andy would have them dressed in all black to perform in front of movies that he was also presenting.{{Cite book|title=Please kill me : the uncensored oral history of punk |last2=McCain |first2=Gillian|isbn=978-0-8021-2536-1|edition= Twentieth anniversary |location=New York|oclc=955634990|last1 = McNeil|first1 = Legs|year = 2016 |publisher=Grove Press}} In 1966, he "produced" their first album The Velvet Underground & Nico, as well as providing its album art.

Beginning in the 1950s, Warhol produced several unbound portfolios of his work. In 1957, his bound book 25 Cats Name Sam and One Blue Pussy was printed by Seymour Berlin. Berlin also printed some of Warhol's other self-published books, including Gold Book and Wild Raspberries. Warhol's book A La Recherche du Shoe Perdu marked his "transition from commercial to gallery artist".Smith, John W., Pamela Allara, and Andy Warhol. Possession Obsession: Andy Warhol and Collecting. Pittsburgh, PA: Andy Warhol Museum, 2002, p. 46. {{ISBN|978-0-9715688-0-8}}. (The title is a play on words by Warhol on the title of French author Marcel Proust's À la recherche du temps perdu.) In an effort to generate work, the majority of these books were printed in order to be given out to people to draw attention to his illustrations.

After gaining fame, Warhol "wrote" several books that were commercially published:

• A, a novel (1968, {{ISBN|978-0-8021-3553-7}}) is a literal transcription—containing spelling errors and phonetically written background noise and mumbling—of audio recordings of Ondine and several of Andy Warhol's friends hanging out at the Factory, talking, going out.{{Cite news |last=Waalkes |first=Bekah |date=July 2023 |title=Coming of age in Warhol's world of imitations and copies |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/books/2023/07/10/coming-age-warhols-world-imitations-copies/ |access-date=April 2, 2024 |newspaper=The Washington Post}}
• The Philosophy of Andy Warhol (From A to B & Back Again) (1975, {{ISBN|978-0-15-671720-5}})—according to Pat Hackett's introduction to The Andy Warhol Diaries, Pat Hackett did the transcriptions and text for the book based on daily phone conversations, sometimes (when Warhol was traveling) using audio cassettes that Andy Warhol gave her.{{Cite journal |last=Gross |first=Michael |date=May 29, 1989 |title=The Satanic Diaries: Is Andy Telling The Truth |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=HegCAAAAMBAJ&dq=pat+hackett+warhol+barnard&pg=PA51 |journal=New York |pages=48–56}} The cassettes contained conversations with Brigid Berlin and former Interview magazine editor Bob Colacello.{{Cite magazine |last=Menand |first=Louis |date=April 20, 2022 |title=The Very Public Private Life of Andy Warhol |url=https://www.newyorker.com/culture/cultural-comment/the-very-public-private-life-of-andy-warhol |access-date=April 2, 2024 |magazine=The New Yorker |language=en-US |issn=0028-792X}}

• POPism: The Warhol '60s (1980, {{ISBN|978-0-15-173095-7}}), authored by Warhol and Pat Hackett, is a retrospective view of the 1960s and the role of pop art.
• The Andy Warhol Diaries (1989, {{ISBN|978-0-446-39138-2}}), edited by Pat Hackett, is a diary dictated by Warhol to Hackett in daily phone conversations. Warhol started the diary to keep track of his expenses after being audited, although it soon evolved to include his personal and cultural observations.{{sfn|Colacello|1990|p=183}}

Warhol created the fashion magazine Interview that is still published. The loopy title script on the cover is thought to be either his own handwriting or that of his mother, Julia Warhola, who would often do text work for his early commercial pieces.{{sfn|Colacello|1990|p=22–23}}

Although Andy Warhol is most known for his paintings and films, he authored works in many different media.

• Drawing: Warhol started his career as a commercial illustrator, producing drawings in "blotted-ink" style for advertisements and magazine articles. Best known of these early works are his drawings of shoes. Some of his personal drawings were self-published in small booklets, such as Yum, Yum, Yum (about food), Ho, Ho, Ho (about Christmas) and Shoes, Shoes, Shoes. His most artistically acclaimed book of drawings is probably A Gold Book, compiled of sensitive drawings of young men. A Gold Book is so named because of the gold leaf that decorates its pages.{{Sfn|Bourdon|1989|p=51}} In April 2012 a sketch of 1930s singer Rudy Vallee claimed to have been drawn by Andy Warhol was found at a Las Vegas garage sale.

A Silver Cloud was included in the traveling exhibition Air Art (1968–1969) curated by Willoughby Sharp. Clouds was also adapted by Warhol for avant-garde choreographer Merce Cunningham's dance piece RainForest (1968).{{Sfn|Bourdon|1989|p=231}}
• Audio: At one point Warhol carried a portable recorder with him wherever he went, taping everything everybody said and did. He referred to this device as his "wife". Some of these tapes were the basis for his literary work. Another audio-work of Warhol's was his Invisible Sculpture, a presentation in which burglar alarms would go off when entering the room. Warhol's cooperation with the musicians of The Velvet Underground was driven by an expressed desire to become a music producer.{{Cite journal |last1=de Duve |first1=Thierry |last2=Krauss |first2=Rosalind |year=1989 |title=Andy Warhol, or The Machine Perfected |url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/778945 |journal=October |volume=48 |pages=3–14 |doi=10.2307/778945 |jstor=778945 |issn=0162-2870|url-access=subscription }}{{Cite news |last=Scherman |first=Tony |date=November 7, 1999 |title=MUSIC; Warhol: The Herald Of Sampling |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1999/11/07/arts/music-warhol-the-herald-of-sampling.html |access-date=April 2, 2024 |work=The New York Times}}
• Time Capsules: In 1973, Warhol began saving ephemera from his daily life—correspondence, newspapers, souvenirs, childhood objects, even used plane tickets and food—which was sealed in plain cardboard boxes dubbed Time Capsules. By the time of his death, the collection grew to include 600, individually dated "capsules".

• Photography: To produce his silkscreens, Warhol made photographs or had them made by his friends and assistants. These pictures were mostly taken with a specific model of Polaroid camera, The Big Shot, that Polaroid kept in production especially for Warhol.

Warhol lived as a gay man before the gay liberation movement, but he often veiled his personal life in the press. In 1980, Warhol proclaimed that he was still a virgin. Former Interview editor Bob Colacello felt it was probably true and that what little sex he had was probably "a mixture of voyeurism and masturbation—to use [Andy's] word abstract."{{Cite book |last=Dillinger |first=Jane Daggett |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=KemglT-1jSIC&q=%22Andy%20Warhol%22%2BVincent%2BFerrer&pg=PA16-IA7 |title=The Religious Art of Andy Warhol |date=2001 |publisher=Continuum International Publishing Group |isbn=978-0-8264-1334-5 |location=New York City |pages=16–17, 36–37 |access-date=April 7, 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210116052236/https://books.google.com/books?id=KemglT-1jSIC&q=%22Andy+Warhol%22%2BVincent%2BFerrer&pg=PA16-IA7 |archive-date=January 16, 2021 |url-status=live}} However, Warhol's assertion of virginity is contradicted by his hospital treatment in 1960 for condylomata, a sexually transmitted disease.{{cite book|first1=Tony|last1=Scherma|first2=David|last2=Dalton|title=POP: The Genius of Andy Warhol|publisher=HarperCollins|location=New York City|date=2010|page=49}} His friend Charles Lisanby, whom Warhol had unrequited romantic feelings for, said Warhol told him sex was "messy and distasteful." "He told me he'd had sex a few times, he had tried it and didn't really like it," said Lisanby.{{Sfn|Gopnik|2020|p=173}} Furthermore, some of Warhol's friends from his early career claimed to have either witnessed Warhol having sex or heard him boasting about his sexual relations.{{Sfn|Gopnik|2020|p=173}}

Due to Warhol's own admission that he was asexual, it has been assumed that all his relationships were platonic. Warhol superstar Jay Johnson, whose twin brother was Warhol's longtime partner, stated, "He enjoyed the idea that he was considered a voyeur and that he was considered asexual. That was his mystique."

The impact of Warhol's homosexuality on his work and connection with the art industry has been extensively studied. Throughout his career, Warhol produced erotic photography and drawings of male nudes. Many of his most famous works—portraits of Liza Minnelli, Judy Garland, and Elizabeth Taylor and films such as Blow Job, My Hustler and Lonesome Cowboys—draw from gay underground culture or openly explore the complexity of sexuality and desire. Many of his films premiered in gay porn theaters, including the New Andy Warhol Garrick Theatre and 55th Street Playhouse, in the 1960s.{{cite book|first=Thomas|last=Waugh|title=Hard to Imagine: Gay Male eroticism in Photography and Film from the Beginnings to Stonewall|publisher=Columbia University Press|location=New York City|date=1996}}

Early works that Warhol submitted to a fine art gallery the 1950s, homoerotic drawings of male nudes, were rejected for being too openly gay.{{Cite news |last=Alberge |first=Dalya |date=2020-02-16 |title=Andy Warhol's 1950s erotic drawings of men to be seen for first time |url=https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2020/feb/16/andy-warhol-1950s-erotic-drawings-men-shown-for-first-time-london-tate-modern |access-date=2025-04-10 |work=The Guardian |language=en-GB |issn=0261-3077}} In his book Popism, the artist recalls a conversation with the filmmaker Emile de Antonio about the difficulty he had being accepted socially by the then-more-famous (but closeted) gay artists Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg. De Antonio explained that Warhol was "too swish and that upsets them. ... major painters try to look straight; you play up the swish—it's like an armour with you."{{Sfn|Warhol|Hackett|1980|p=14}} In response, Warhol said: "I'd always had a lot of fun with that—just watching the expressions on people's faces. You'd have to have seen the way all the Abstract Expressionist painters carried themselves and the kinds of images they cultivated, to understand how shocked people were to see a painter coming on swish.

Warhol was a practicing Ruthenian Catholic. He regularly volunteered at homeless shelters in New York City, particularly during the busier times of the year, and described himself as a religious person.{{Cite journal |first=James |last=Romaine |date=November 12, 2003 |title=Transubstantiating the Culture: Andy Warhol's Secret |url=http://oldarchive.godspy.com/culture/Andy-Warhol-Transubstantiating-the-Culture.cfm.html |journal=Godspy |access-date=January 5, 2009 |archive-date=November 18, 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081118095337/http://oldarchive.godspy.com/culture/Andy-Warhol-Transubstantiating-the-Culture.cfm.html |url-status=live }} In 1966, his mother Julia Warhola told Esquire magazine that he was a "good religious boy" and he attended one o'clock Mass at St. Paul's every Sunday. The priest at Warhol's church, Saint Vincent Ferrer, said that the artist went there almost daily, and although he was not observed taking Communion or going to Confession, he sat or knelt in the pews at the back. The priest thought he was afraid of being recognized; Warhol said he was self-conscious about being seen in a Latin Catholic church crossing himself "in the Orthodox way" (right to left instead of the reverse). In 1980, Warhol met Pope John Paul II in St. Peter's Square.

Many of Warhol's later works depicted religious subjects, including two series, Details of Renaissance Paintings (1984) and The Last Supper (1986). Warhol made almost 100 variations on the theme of the Last Supper, which the Guggenheim felt "indicates an almost obsessive investment in the subject matter".{{cite web |last=Schmuckli |first=Claudia |year=1999 |title=Andy Warhol: The Last Supper |url=http://pastexhibitions.guggenheim.org/warhol/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090116161414/http://pastexhibitions.guggenheim.org/warhol/ |archive-date=January 16, 2009 |access-date=January 5, 2009 |publisher=Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation |location=SoHo}} In addition, a body of religious-themed works was found posthumously in his estate.

Warhol's art is noticeably influenced by the Eastern Christian tradition which was so evident in his places of worship. Warhol's brother has described the artist as "really religious, but he didn't want people to know about that because [it was] private". Despite the private nature of his faith, in Warhol's eulogy John Richardson depicted it as devout: "To my certain knowledge, he was responsible for at least one conversion. He took considerable pride in financing his nephew's studies for priesthood".

Warhol founded Interview, a stage for celebrities he "endorsed" and a business staffed by his friends. One might even say that he produced people (as in the Warholian "Superstar" and the Warholian portrait). Warhol endorsed products, appeared in commercials, and made frequent celebrity guest appearances on television shows and films.

In 1969, Warhol was commissioned by Braniff International to appear in two television commercials to promote the luxury airline's "When You Got It – Flaunt It" campaign. The campaign was created by the advertising agency Lois Holland Calloway, which was led by George Lois, creator of a famed series of Esquire covers. The first commercial series involved the unlikely paring of Warhol and heavyweight boxing champion Sonny Liston who shared the fact that they both flew Braniff Airways.
