"To me there is no past or future in art. The art of the great painters who lived in other times is not an art of the past; perhaps it is more alive today than it ever was." --Pablo Picasso

How Andy Warhol Ended up in a Crater on Mercury
Andy Warhol looked for fame
any place he could find it, so news that a
crater on the surface of the planet Mercury has been named in his honor comes
as no surprise. Warhol joined 22 other famous dead artists, musicians, and
writers in that distinction recently, according to a NASA press release last
month. It may seem like one small step for Warhol, but it actually might be one
giant leap for late 20th century art’s acceptance on a universal
level. Please come over to Picture This at Big Think to read more of "How Andy Warhol Ended up in a Crater on Mercury."
