It is fair to say that notwithstanding the social and political manifestations of individualism, which are still pillars of orthodoxy in many developed western counties- such as the U.S.A and Britain-probably the most striking evidence of the enduring of individualism,and just how deeply this view of society has permeated all fields and forms of the contemporary arts,is the celebrity culture that surrounds us nowadays.Being famous,or better,being famous for just being famous,has become almost an article of faith for wannabes everywhere. The seemingly insatiable public appetite fore reality TV and tabloid newspapers,in addition to the all –pervasive celebrity photojournalism that fills a plethora of ubiquitous glossy magazines , are living testimony to Andy Warhol’s dictum that anyone can be famous for fifteen minutes’these days.
