  • Steve Rubell and Ian Schrager Opened Studio 54 40 Years Ago, and It Soon Became the Epicenter of New York City's Nightlife for Nearly Three Years
    Steve Rubell and Ian Schrager opened Studio 54 40 years ago, and it soon became the epicenter of New York City's nightlife for nearly three years. While it lasted, many photographers flocked to the bacchanal to capture the celebrities and other lucky denizens as they danced and snorted and frolicked under that iconic Man in the Moon with the coke spoon sculpture. One of the men on the scene was Gene Spatz, a pioneering paparazzo and street photographer who most people have never heard about. Unlike Ron Galella's work – which has been exhibited and is collected as fine art – after Spatz died in 2003 the archive of images was inherited by his younger sister, Amy Lowen, and packed away in filing cabinets in her Kentucky home. She avoided the task of assessing what she had in her possession for nearly a decade until she began to unearth her brother's forgotten treasures. "While he was working in the late Seventies, I had gotten married, moved to Louisville, Kentucky, and wasn't a part of Gene's day-to-day life," Lowen tells Rolling Stone. "It wasn't until he was gone, and I had brought everything home and put it in storage, that I began to open up these envelopes and discover his work." The black-and-white photographs included scenes from iconic clubs like Studio 54 and Xenon; shots of Carrie Fisher, Jackie Kennedy Onassis, Mary Tyler Moore and Robert Redford; as well quirky New York City street life tableaus in the 1970s and Eighties. Lowen recognized some of the celebrities in the photos, but she wasn't sure what exactly her brother's archives contained – or its value to the world.

Now the culture just wanted to go disco.” Anthony Haden-Guest Paul Kasmin Gallery is pleased to announce our upcoming photography exhibition, DISCO YEARS by RON GALELLA on view at 511 West 27th Street from September 6 through October 7, 2006. DISCO YEARS will consist of more than 100 black and white vintage prints taken throughout the Seventies. Widely acknowledged as the most controversial celebrity photographer in the United States, Galella has been lauded as “the godfather of American Extraordinare” by Newsweek. Featured on the cover of Life and famously sued for harassment by Jackie Onassis, Galella has been hosed down by friends of Brigitte Bardot and punched by Marlon Brando. DISCO YEARS brings us in touch with the New York Club scene and all it had to offer from the rockers and the fashonistas to the jet-setting socialites and freaky artists that helped define the decadent decade. Included within are snapshots of Andy Warhol, Elizabeth Taylor, Halston and Liza Minelli. This exhibition will coincide with the release of Galella’s new book DISCO YEARS, published by Powerhouse Books, with foreword by Anthony Haden-Guest and afterword by Michael Musto.

Brooklyn Dorado Museum, , Brooklyn Studio 54: Night Magic, the First Exhibition to Explore the Trailblazing Aesthetics and Continuing Impact of New York City’s Legendary Nightclub, on View through November 8 Highlighting the revolutionary creativity, expressive freedom, and sexual liberation celebrated at the world-renowned nightclub, the exhibition will present over 650 objects ranging from fashion, photography, drawings, and film to stage sets and music Following the Vietnam War, and amid the nationwide Civil Rights Movement and fights for LGBTQ+ and women’s rights, a nearly bankrupted New York City hungered for social and creative transformation as well as a sense of joyous celebration after years of protest and upheaval. Low rents attracted a diverse group of artists, fashion designers, writers, and musicians to the city, fostering cultural change and the invention of new art forms, including musical genres such as punk, hip-hop, and disco. In a rare societal shift, people from different sexual, sociopolitical, and financial strata intermingled freely in the after-hours nightclubs of New York City. No place exemplified this more than Studio 54. Though it was open for only three years—from April 26, 1977, to February 2, 1980—Studio 54 was arguably the most iconic nightclub to emerge in the twentieth century. Set in a former opera house in Midtown Manhattan, with the stage innovatively re-envisioned as a dance floor, Studio 54 became a space of sexual, gender, and creative liberation, where every patron could feel like a star.

ITALIAN ICONS, SETTANTA IMMAGINI IN BIANCO E NERO PER OMAGGIARE IL TRICOLORE ccanito, coraggioso, umano. Un brillante realista capace di rappresentare fedel- mente il mondo”. A questa efficace descrizione di Glenn O’Brien, direttore della “Arivista “Interview” di Andy Warhol, su Ron Galella, fotografo italoamericano di origini lucane, si potrebbero aggiungere altre qualità, ma una, in particolare, può diventare la cifra del suo modo di essere: l’intraprendenza. Un approccio creativo alla vita alimentato da un insegnamento della sua maestra: “per emergere bisogna diventare il numero uno”. Una lezione che lo ha guidato costantemente, permettendogli di raggiungere il suo sogno: diven- tare fotografo, trarre piacere dalla sua professione, realizzare immagini mai monocorde. Fotografie che hanno raccontato un’epoca, che hanno contribuito a rendere celebri i personaggi più in vista dello star system degli anni ’60 e ’70 da Marlon Brando a Jackie Ken- nedy, da Sofia Loren a Robert Redford, da Monica Vitti a Bernardo Bertolucci. Una vastissima produzione, frutto di cinquant’anni di lavoro, custodita come il bene più prezioso a Villa Palladio, la dimora neoclassica progettata da Ron e sua moglie Betty e immersa nelle campagne del New Jersey.

PHOTOGRAPHERS, STARS AND ARTISTS June 27–October 12, 2014 Press preview: Thursday, June 26, 2014, 11 a.m. With “Paparazzi! Photographers, Stars and Artists”, beginning on June 27, 2014, the Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt presents the most extensive exhibition in Germany on the global phenomenon and the aesthetic of paparazzi photography to date. Around 500 works and documents trace the unbroken fascination with star photography and at the same time reflect its influence on the visual arts and fashion photography. The presentation features “icons” of paparazzi photography that have been permanently etched on our visual memory, including Jackie Kennedy-Onassis during an seemingly casual walk through Manhattan, Lady Di fleeing from a frenzy of flashing cameras, or the younger “favorites” of paparazzi such as Paris Hilton or Britney Spears. Besides works by the most well-known representatives of paparazzi photography, such as Ron Galella, Pascal Rostain, Bruno Mouron, or Tazio Secchiaroli, the large-scale exhibition presents positions by artists such as Cindy Sherman, Gerhard Richter, Andy Warhol, Barbara Kruger, Paul McCarthy, and Richard Avedon, who have critically examined and sounded out the specific characteristics of the paparazzi aesthetic. Developed and organized by the Centre Pompidou-Metz, using photographs, videos, paintings, sculptures, work objects,
