About this Event
While working as a freelance photographer in 1977, Bill Bernstein was sent to Studio 54 to shoot a black-tie dinner for President Carter’s mother, Lillian. The buzz about what usually happened inside the club compelled Bernstein to stick around after his assignment; the rest is disco history.
Revisit these glittering, glory days; from the legendary 54 to Le Clique within the pages of Bernstein’s most recent book Last Dance. Never before seen images celebrate an inflection point in New York City’s history fueled by a mix of social movements and cultures.
This conversation explores how club culture today continues to be inspired by dancefloors of the past.
