Overview
You young pups may remember Andy Warhol as Guy Pearce's character from Factory Girl, to be held responsible for an excruciatingly endless supply of reprints of both Marilyn Monroe's likeness and a stylised can of Campbell's soup, as sold at your local home wares store or artist's market real fancy like. Don't hold that against him.
What you may not know is that in 1968 a deranged extremist feminist named Valerie Solanas shot Warhol at his famous studio, as part of a plan to tear down the patriarchal constructions of society, which she felt the voyeuristic Warhol personified. Intriguing, hey? Noel Anderson has written and directed a play about Warhol’s life and the whole assassination debacle, aptly titled Andy Warhol’s Fifteen Minutes of Fame, currently showing at La Mama Courthouse Theatre, from Wednesday through Sunday, until February 10.
