This is like a retrospective of your life.
Tell us, how did you come up with the name first of all, So Famous?
Well, you know, this is actually a retrospective of the 90s, the 1990s.
I went on a lot further since then.
Nora Law, you know, she introduced me to Marianne.
You're the creator of this.
How did you go about executing this? Tell them.
I wanted to give everyone a feel
of stepping into Patrick McMullan's world
with the flashing lights, the red carpets,
the unforgettable faces, having a moment
of just stepping inside his world
and feeling what it's like for that moment
in time. And I feel we captured that.
I did a book called So 80s. So having a
thing about the 90s rather than saying it's called So Famous.
Because in the 90s, I had that access. I worked for Vanity Fair
and New York Magazine and you name it, Interview, you name it.
I worked for everything. They've all since gone out of business,
or I've gone out of business with them.
They don't need me anymore, you know.
It brings a chapter of cultural history back to life.
He just represents everything iconic.
What comes to your mind when you think of Patrick and Andy Warhol?
Oh, I love the quote that Andy Warhol said for Patrick.
If you don't know Patrick McMullan, you ought to get out more.
Where can audiences see this body of work?
Well, they have to come to this gallery, the one in Artspace.
And this is up for a month. It's up until Christmas.
