Bob Colacello

the long version

"Out" documents the decade between the end of the Vietnam war and the advent of AIDS in Manhattan. As the editor of Andy Warhol's Interview from 1971 to 1983, Bob Colacello recorded this life of art openings, movie premieres, cocktail parties, dinner parties, charity balls and after-hours clubs; he wrote about them in a monthly column called "Out." In 1975, Colacello began snapping photographs, too: Henry Kissinger holding forth at a dinner party, or Bianca Jagger letting loose at Studio 54. Colacello was "an accidental photographer." Subjects include: Diana Vreeland, Calvin Klein, Jack Nicholson, Richard Gere, Cher, Raquel Welch, Mick Jagger, Diane von Furstenberg, Barry Diller, Valentino, Yves Saint Laurent, Nan Kempner, Robert Rauschenberg, Roy Lichtenstein and always Andy Warhol. Space in "Interview" was limited, so only a handful of Colacello's pictures were published each month. Most of those collected in "Out" have never been seen before.
