From the moment it opened in 1977, Studio 54 celebrated spectacle and promised a never-ending parade of anything goes. Although it existed for only three years, it served as a catalyst that brought together some of the most famous, creative, and strangest people in the world. It quickly became known for its all-ages celebrity guest list and its uniquely chic clientele of superstars and freaks of all races and sexual preferences who would often show up half-dressed or in costume. From the cutting-edge lighting displays and sound system to its elaborate sets that would change on a whim, altering the environment and ambiance, it was the beginning of nightclub as performance art.
"...[a] tribute to a disco club that glimmered in 1970s-era Manhattan..." --ART NEWS

"If there is one nightclub that has made a lasting impact on pop culture, it has to be Studio 54. The disco hotspot in Manhattan only ran for three years, from 1977 to 1980, but changed photography, style, music and celebrity culture." --FORBES.COM

"...traces the radiant history, social politics, and trailblazing aesthetics of the most iconic nightclub of all time. Behind the velvet rope, partygoers of all backgrounds and lifestyles could come together for nights of music, dazzling lights, and the popular song and dance 'the Hustle." --ARTNET.COM

Matthew Yokobosky is Senior Curator, Fashion and Material Culture, at Brooklyn Museum.
