## Caption

Photography was central to Andy Warhol's philosophy and his obsession with self-representation. He carried a camera with him wherever he went, taking hundreds of thousands of photographs during his career. By the early 1970s, the Polaroid was his tool of choice.

The Polaroid images featured in our exhibition Andy Warhol Family Album offer a varied glimpse into the artist's day-to-day-life, ranging from posed portraits and candid shots of friends to documentation of his travels and even pictures of his dog Archie.

Andy Warhol Family Album is on view now through October 19 in our seventh floor galleries.
