Green mono…

I walked past the students and artists painting the murals again today and took this one to play with for Abstract Thursday. Since I’m a lover of black and white photography I automatically think black and white for mono but decided to change all that today so you have green mono and a couple of other colours in extras. I also showed the lads my selfie from yesterday and they were in hysterics!

Since the lads were hysterical to see yesterdays’s selfie I think I had my 15 minutes of fame so the saying of the day whose origin I researched today is ‘15 minutes of fame’
The phrase "In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes" is attributed to Andy Warhol. While the phrase is widely associated with Warhol, some sources suggest he may have adapted it from a statement by Pontus Hulten, or that it was a quote from an exhibition brochure in 1968. Regardless of its exact origin, the phrase has become synonymous with Warhol and his exploration of fame and celebrity

Origins
The phrase "quart-d'heure de célébrité" (fifteen minutes of fame) was used in French during the 19th century, notably by Alphonse Daudet in an article, "Villemessant", first published in 1879: "de braves garçons [...] ont eu, pour une heureuse trouvaille de quinze lignes, leur quart-d'heure de célébrité" ("some young fellows have had [...] thanks to fifteen cleverly-written lines, their fifteen minutes of fame".[3] Another French phrase, with the same meaning, "quart-d'heure de popularité" (fifteen minutes of popularity) appears in 1821, in Histoire de l'Assemblée constituante (tome premier), by Charles Lacretelle: "le tribun [...], pour un quart-d'heure de popularité, portait le premier coup de hache sur nos monuments" ("the orator [...], for fifteen minutes of popularity, dealt the first blow to our monuments").[4]
Warhol's alleged quotation first appeared in print in a program for his 1968 exhibit at the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Sweden. In the autumn of 1967, Pontus Hultén (the director for the Moderna Museet) asked Olle Granath to help with the production of the exhibit, which was due to open in February 1968. Granath was tasked with writing a program for the exhibit, complete with Swedish translations. He was given a box of writings by and about Warhol to use for the program. Granath claims that submitting his manuscript, Hultén asked him to insert the quote: "In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes." To which Granath replied that quote was not in the material he was given. Hultén replied, "if he didn’t say it, he could very well have said it. Let’s put it in.
Photographer Nat Finkelstein claimed credit for the expression, stating that he was photographing Warhol in 1966 for a proposed book. A crowd gathered trying to get into the pictures and Warhol supposedly remarked that everyone wants to be famous, to which Finkelstein replied, "Yeah, for about fifteen minutes, Andy.”
