Another Fashion Week has come and gone. I hit the streets of Chelsea, Soho, and the Meatpacking District to capture the fashionably dressed, attended the extra popular 29 Rooms, and even shot a few runway shows. Here’s the best of the best.

Brett Amory’s This Land is Not For Sale: Forgotten, Past and Foreseeable Futures at Jonathan LeVine Gallery is a new solo exhibition exploring the changing landscape of New York City. Paintings of famous storefronts and buildings are showcased. Some are long gone (Mars Bar, CBGB.) Some are still around (ABC No Rio, Economy Candy, Yonah Shimmel.) Some are currently going through changes (190 Bowery.) Featured in the entrance of the gallery is one of those green construction underpasses seen all over the city. As hyper gentrification continues, how many more of the businesses featured in these paintings will be replaced with luxury developments?

#RiseUpOctober is a three-day event in NYC organized by Dr. Cornel West, Carl Dix, and the Stop Mass Incarceration Network. The aim is to protest and raise awareness of police brutality, incarceration, and injustice in the legal system. Speakers include the families of nationwide police murder victims. I joined the rally in Bryant Park and got some shots.
The Brooklyn Army Terminal is a former military base turned office/warehouse complex located on the Sunset Park waterfront. Unopened to the general public, I was able to take a look inside during Open House New York weekend. The first thing I noticed while shooting is how symmetrical everything is. Designed by Cass Gilbert, the architecture presents an opportunity for a lot of cool shots.
Heroic Villainy is a new duo show by Rob “TMO” Plater and Stanley Kubik at Grumpy Bert. Heroes and villains is the theme, with both artists bringing all our pop culture favorites to life. Batman, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Captain America, Star Wars, Mortal Kombat, X-Men, and more are represented. Like everything with a comic book theme, let’s hope we see a sequel in the future.
