Paris Hilton, Impressionist

“That whole phrase exists because there was no definition for what was actually going on. When all the artists were doing what we now call Impressionism, they couldn’t name it at the time so they just said, ‘squiggly painting,’ ‘crazy artists.’ That’s what ‘famous for being famous’ sounds like to me: a person not being able to properly define what a movement is and what that movement was doing.”
