Museum sets up site to watch artist's grave

Apparently, Andy Warhol would have turned 85 a couple of days ago. If he was still alive.

So in honour of what would have been his 85th birthday, the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh has launched a live video feed from the pop artist’s grave site.

Now don't all rush at once, there's enough room for everyone.

The project is titled Figment, because of a Warhol quote in which the artist said: "I always thought I’d like my own tombstone to be blank. No epitaph and no name. Well, actually, I’d like it to say Figment."

The museum has been posting pics on Twitter of the commemoration.

Warhol, who died in 1987, was a devout Catholic who went to church every day to pray.

Well I never!
