Andrew Warhola, Jr. (often referred to as Andy Warhol), was an American painter, printmaker, and filmmaker who was a leading figure in the visual art movement known as pop art.
When Amy, Dr. Zoidberg, and Professor Farnsworth briefly teleported to the 1960s, [6ACV23] they were teleported in front of Warhol's work of art Campbell's Soup Cans. Warhol then walked up to them, referring to Zoidberg as a "marvelous lobster man", but soon dismissing him as a "horrid bore". The encounter resulted in the painting Unwelcome Guest in 1968, which contains four different-colored depictions of Zoidberg's head.

Trivia
- The painting Unwelcome Guest is a parody of 1964's Shot Marilyns.
