    Full Description

    In April 2027, it will be 50 years since the legendary Studio 54 first opened its doors. The iconic New York nightclub (1977–1986), founded by Steve Rubell and Ian Schrager, became the ultimate symbol of disco, glamour, and unapologetic excess. Known for its notoriously strict door policy and unforgettable parties, Studio 54 attracted the world’s biggest celebrities and defined the nightlife culture of the 1970s. Among its regular visitors was Oscar Abolafia, who captured countless intimate and iconic images of the club’s guests, including some of Hollywood’s most legendary stars. To mark its 50th anniversary, this stunning photo book celebrates Studio 54 through Oscar’s lens.

    About the Author

    Oscar Abolafia (1935 - 2020) is an American photographer known for his outstanding photojournalism of the celebrities that made the 1960s and 70s truly extraordinary. At a young age, William Vandivert, one of the founders of Magnum Photos, took him on as an assistant and showed him the ropes about technical and lighting skills. Abolafia's work made the pages of world-famous magazines such as People Magazine, Vanity Fair and Harper's Bazaar. Over a span of 50 years of work in the field of photography, he was able to build personal and intimate relationships with the most enduring stars of our age, such as the Kennedys, Liz Taylor, Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra, to name but a few. His book Icons by Oscar sold well over 20,000 copies.
