Andy Warhol’s Fifteen Minutes of Fame

January 10 at 7 pm

Pop artist Andy Warhol famously elevated everyday objects—like soup cans—to works of fine art. His paintings, silkscreens, and photography often focused on American consumerism, not just of products, but of celebrities and images themselves. This program will look at the abbreviated life, artwork, and enduring legacy of the artist who predicted, “In the future, everyone will be world-famous for fifteen minutes.”
