June 11, 2013. On the evening of June 10th, Belgian-based Additive Manufacturing (also known as 3D Printing) pioneer Materialise sponsored a ground-breaking event at the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, PA. Marking one of the first times that works by Andy Warhol have been reinterpreted by 3D Printing technologies, the event, (organized to celebrate the opening of the RAPID 2013 Additive Manufacturing Conference & Expo), featured both "Factory 2.0", a series of Warhol-inspired installations spread about the museum, as well as the five finalists of the "i.materialise Andy Warhol Contest". The event was a resounding success with hundreds of awestruck visitors seeing firsthand how 3D Printing is changing the way that art is conceived and made.
