Exhibition: The Liquid Night – Bill Henson

‘In the heart of New York City, 1989, Bill Henson captured the soul of a generation on 35mm colour negative film. The Liquid Night, his latest exhibition & book, offers more than just photographs; it provides a hauntingly beautiful window into a time of frenzied nightlife and vibrant streetscapes, bringing back to life an era that’s now lost to the annals of history.

Bill Henson’s mastery shines brightly in this collection, as his photographs invite viewers on a kaleidoscopic journey. Each frame speaks volumes, evoking emotions and vivid memories that transport you back to the hustle and bustle of the neon-lit streets.’ Tolarno Galleries.
