Foreword by James Hillard. Text by Bill Bernstein, Nona Hendryx.
The deluxe edition of Disco: The Bill Bernstein Photographs is limited to 100 signed and numbered copies. This collector’s item includes a signed photograph exclusive to this edition and is presented in a bespoke slipcase.
Containing many previously unpublished photographs, Disco takes the viewer on an access-all-areas tour of late-’70s New York nightlife. “Who were these people of the night...? It was the Posers. The Watchers. The Posers watching other Posers watching the Watchers, watching the Dancers, watching themselves.” Bernstein’s eye was drawn to the characters that lived for the night, rather than the celebrities, the unknown men and women who were transformed by the nightclub haze, and this is one reason his photographs from this time feel so authentic and immersive.
