China was a source of inspiration for influential American pop artist Andy Warhol. Although he is known for repetition in his artwork, Warhol visited China only once in his lifetime. During his 1982 trip, Warhol was just another tourist to most Chinese, who did not recognize the iconic artist. East met West when Warhol exchanged artwork with master painter Dr. Chang Ku-nien. Which of Warhol’s famous paintings is your favorite?
