New York between waves: Over eight weeks between May and July, 40 photographers and nine reporters for the New York Times documented performances, house parties, bars, dance floors and all the chaos that makes New York come alive in the dark. See the portfolio of the city’s party scene.
Don’t touch the pictures! For 106 years, the New York Public Library’s vaunted picture collection has been open to the public. Andy Warhol and Maus illustrator Art Spiegelman were among those who leafed through the images. Now it’s closing to walk-in traffic from the public, and is moving because outreach administrators are taking over the space, the New York Times reports.
A photographer’s cheeky take on the rich: L.A.-based art photographer Buck Ellison hires actors and models to populate his stage-managed scenes. “The markers we’ve come to associate with a particular brand of buttoned-up, Ivy League, East Coast Waspish wealth are omnipresent,” the New Yorker writes. Ellison is of that world, and his images may often be caustic, but they are occasionally playful as well.
