Description

Andy Warhol coined the phrase "Everyone should be famous for 15 minutes."

This exhibition examines Warhol's interest with pop culture figures, the images they are synonymous with and the transformative quality of Warhol's process, thus creating pop culture. While some of his most iconic images draw from pop culture itself, the artist can be credited with elevating the average objects, such as the Campbellā€™s Soup cans, to pop status.
