BOOK:
BOB COLACELLO'S OUT
A document of a social era that seems so close and yet so far away: that wild, glamorous, disco-and-drugs-driven decade between the end of the Vietnam war and the advent of AIDS, when every nicht was a party night and such distinctions as uptown and downtwon, gay and straight, black and white were momentarily cast aside. As the editor of Andy Warhol's "Interview" from 1971 to 1983, Bob Colacello was perfectly placed to record the scene, which he did in his monthly "Out" column, a diary of the frenetic social life that took him from art openings to movie premiers, from cocktail parties to dinner parties, from charity balls to after-hour-clubs.( www.steidl.de)
