About the Item
Bill Bernstein
Disco
c. 1970
Set of four Photographs
These iconic images not only document the people and places of the golden age of disco, but also capture the spirit and intensity of a cultural movement. “The Disco, in New York City from 1977–1979, was a haven for acceptance and inclusion. It was much more than celebrities, drugs and music—The Disco was a state of mind. These were the post-Stonewall, post–Saturday Night Fever, and pre-AIDS years. For a brief period of time The Disco offered a place where everyone—White, Black, Hispanic, Straight, LGBT, Young, Old, Famous or Not-So-Famous—could meet up and dance their ‘Victory Dance’ without judgment or prejudice. It was a safe space where you could be whoever you wanted to be. It was this sense of freedom of expression that drew me to document these clubs, for this short two-year period, with my camera. I didn’t understand it then, but I now believe that this era was a short-lived preview of a world of inclusion that we are just now beginning to bear witness to. With this in mind, the time feels right for a look back at this unique moment in time.” —

Balmain's Mermaid, A Night in Paris

Balmain's Mermaid, A Night in Paris
1957
Archival pigment print
Estate stamped, signed and numbered by Andrea Derujinsky with certificate of authenticity
Groundbreaking fashion photographer Gleb Derujinsky invigorated the fashion industry with his glamorous, exotic, and often unconventional photographs. Gleb Derujinsky's career as a fashion photographer took hold in the golden age of European haute couture, when Balenciaga and Pierre Balmain were at the top of their game and Yves Saint Laurent and Karl Lagerfeld were designing their first runway shows. Although air travel was still reserved for the happy few, Derujinsky convinced his editors Carmel Snow and Diana Vreeland to send him around the world to photograph beautiful models like Carmen Dell Orefice and his future wife, Ruth Neumann draped in expensive gowns juxtaposed against rough desert dunes or a glittering ocean at sunset. His ideas were revolutionary and they gave rise to the mystique and glamour that is now pervasive in fashion. Derujinsky was the quintessential Renaissance man photographer, award-winning cinematographer and commercial director, inventor, WWII veteran, world traveler, jewelry designer, musician, ski instructor, Ferrari America race-car driver, and champion glider pilot. His passion for photography started at the tender age of six, by ten, he had built a photo enlarger, and as a teenager, he became the youngest member of the Camera Club of New York. His photographs appeared in major lifestyle magazines and extensively in Harper's Bazaar from 1950 to 1970
Derujinsky’s best fashion photographs are typified by the frisson between high fashion in the 1950s and 1960s with the dynamism of locations and urban scenarios." Louis Vuitton Fashion...
