About this Event
In the early 1990s, following the success of his debut story, Dietmar Busse's photographs quickly became a fixture of New York City's fashion newsstands. Subsequent commissions included a notable feature for Paper magazine under the direction of editor Mickey Boardman. Shortly thereafter, Busse began contributing to The New York Times Magazine, signed with an agent, and expanded his practice to encompass portraiture and fashion editorials for various publications, all distributed via the city's network of newsstands in sidewalk booths, storefronts, and subway stations across the city. Amant's current exhibition Dietmar Busse: Fairytales 1991-1999 presents a curated selection of Busse's formative work from this period.
On the occasion of Dietmar Busse’s exhibition, this roundtable conversation with Mickey Broadman and Jeppe Ugelvig will address the fashion scene of New York in the 1990s, the work of fashion photographers during the analogue era of photography and its connection to fashion advertising from myriad angles. In particular, the panel will consider the pre-9/11 downtown scene of art and fashion hybridity, with the turn of the millennium seemingly being a crucial cut-off point to a productive period.
