Interview magazine, founded by Andy Warhol in 1969, has closed down according to numerous news sources.
The magazine was owned by Peter Brant, a billionaire art collector who acquired it in 1969, and in 2008 was relaunched under co-editorial directors Fabien Baron and the late Glenn O’Brien. Despite it still being a relevant and widely-loved publication, Interview has undergone months of turmoil including sexual misconduct and rent and law disputes.
In 1977, on the back of his his famous dictum that in the future everyone in America would be famous for 15 minutes, Warhol told O’Brien that when he was drunk, “I tell everyone they can be on the cover of Interview”.
