The last holiday weekend for a while is fast approaching.

The last hurrah for the summer.

But what an exciting fall coming up.

At the CohenAmador Gallery in NYC:

“On the Street 1980 – 1990” an exhibition of portraiture by the renowned New York photographer Amy Arbus in conjunction with the publication of her book of the same title.

The Clash © 1981 Amy Arbus

“Originally published in The Village Voice’s monthly fashion section, Amy Arbus’ images stand alone as intrepid and insightful visual documents that keenly display the diverse character of New Yorkers out and about on the city streets. Her subjects include performance artists; costume, fashion, and interior designers; shop owners; agents, musicians; make-up artists; graffiti artists; bartenders; publishers; philosophers; journalists; and nightclub strippers. Amy not only reflects the theatrical quality of her subjects, but also delivers a jolt of visual panache in a series of photographs enthusiastically and ornately attached to the 1980s.”

“The daughter of the iconic American photographer Diane Arbus and actor Allan Arbus, Amy successfully internalizes her mother’s unique and exploratory eye while developing her own personal style of photographic inquiry.”

And of course one our favorite events, PhotoNY.
If you are in NYC during this time you must go. Honestly go a few times, you may get overwhelmed.
A wonderful photographic dealer trade show that is open to the public.
Dealers from around the world all under one roof.
Not to be missed.
There is a short video peice on the full series on our MEDIA page with the man behind the event Stephen Cohen, discussing the concept behind this. Although it was made for PhotoLA it tells a similar story.

There are just a few of the incredible exhibitions coming this fall.

We’ll give some reminders as they get closer.

Yes, some of what you read here was from the press releases. Until the show opens, photoinduced.com can’t honestly give a review.

But the body of work from these artists to this point promises great shows.
I’m already making travel plans. It going to be a busy few months!

Next up some news on the another cool event, The Lucies, considered the academy awards of photography.

Cheers!
