See Legendary Nightlife Photographer Patrick McMullan's Personal Stash on View Now At Soloman Contemporary

What happens in New York definitely doesn't stay in New York thanks to Patrick McMullan. With a career spanning over three decades, McMullan is one of the world’s most celebrated party, fashion, and society photographers on the New York beat.  Currently, Salomon Contemporary is presenting Pictures from the Patrick McMullan collection. The eclectic ensemble of over 200 artworks ranges from his own prized photographs, those from renowned photographers David LaChapelle, Timothy Greenfield-Sanders, Steven Klein, Peter Beard, Harry Benson, Mary Ellen Mark, Todd Eberle, Kelly Klein, Michael Thomson, Roe Etheridge, Jessica Craig-Martin, Scavullo to Salgado to outsider art, Hollywood studio shots, and familiar kitsch. Some were gifts, some were trades, some were purchased from charity auctions, which he often photographed. Each of course has a story and a sentiment. Pictures will be on view until July 31, 2015 at Soloman Contemporary, 525-531 West 26 Street, 4th Floor
