CLUB 57: Film, Performance, and Art in the East Village, 1978-1983


Where | Museum of Modern Art, (MoMA) New York NY
When | October 31, 2017 – April 1, 2018


Club 57: Film, Performance, and Art in the East Village, 1978–1983, is a major exhibition examining the scene-changing, interdisciplinary life of downtown New York’s seminal and fabled post-punk alternative space in New York’s East Village.

MAITRESSE was originally created for Club 57 as a feminist slideshow with 98 erotic images for the party night of Pictures you Can Dance To (April 30, 1980) and set to Lou Reed and the Velvet Underground singing “Venus in Furs.”

The images capture a fearless collaboration between Rosen’s female gaze and the sexual imagination of her subjects. In the safe, respectful, intimate setting of her studio playground, the women – straight, gay, singled and coupled — felt free to dress, undress and pose, wearing feather boas, studded leather or nothing at all. Rosen’s images range from romantically soft and feminine to shockingly powerful and muscular, to gender-fluid and androgynous. Transgressive at the time, they were among the first to show women exploring their bodies, reclaiming the power to define their own physical beauty and sexual truths.
