Sharif Bey Returns to Pittsburgh with Homecoming Exhibition at Warhol Museum

The Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh will host 'Sharif Bey: Homecoming' from June 26 to October 12, 2026. The exhibition celebrates the return of Pittsburgh-born ceramic artist, sculptor, and educator Sharif Bey to his hometown, showcasing works that draw from his experiences across creative communities, residencies, and partnerships. Bey's complex sculptures are inspired by modernism, functional pottery, and Oceanic and African art, and reference childhood memories of Pittsburgh's urban landscape. His work offers commentary on identity and home as a physical return, introspective journey, and reconnection with artistic roots. The exhibition will feature Bey's monumental ceramic sculptures alongside other artworks.
