Andy Warhol "15 minutes of fame"

In February 1968 Andy Warhol exhibited his first international retrospective exhibition at the Moderna Museet gallery in Stockholm. The exhibition catalogue contained "In the future everybody will be world famous for fifteen minutes.". It is far and away the best-known of the many quotations attributed to Warhol, in fact it is probably the only comment of his that most people know.




Have you had your 15 minutes of fame yet?

No need it wasn't too bad just annoying at the time. Not all publicity is good publicity is what we learned.

Re: Andy Warhol "15 minutes of fame"

Not sure what is meant by fame...I've been in the paper a few times but nothing exciting...once after meeting the Duchess of Kent she told me about the Queen having received a letter from the troops during the Iraq conflict....the letter started Dear Queen which tickled her majesty....anyway the paper I worked for did an article about it....later when I had my own business I had a few articles about what me and my partner were up to...nothing big but little pieces. .

Yes I had my 5 Mins of fame on my local TV Station for a real nice fish I caught back in the 80's it was rather embarrassing to see oneself on the box.
