The bulk of the estimated $15-million estate left by artist Andy Warhol will go to a charity for the visual arts, his will disclosed Wednesday. Warhol, who died Sunday at 59, directed that the money be used to establish “The Foundation for Visual Arts,” or a charity with a similar name. Papers filed in a New York court showed the estate consisted of about $4 million in real estate and about $11 million in personal property. Warhol also left $250,000 to “my friend” Frederick Hughes, estate executor and president of Interview magazine, and up to $500,000 to his two brothers.
