Recensioner i media

"""A music, an era — “A Night at the Disco – you could see everything and anything could happen!” That was the feeling that defined an entire generation and is captured in the book A Night at the Disco (ACC Art Books).Donna Summer, among many others, shares her memories, emphasizing that “We all had a fire inside us, fueled by our love for music, the hope of success, and the knowledge that we were part of history.”Indeed, disco was not simply music, but a place where body and style met beneath swirling lights; where dance was the ultimate form of self-expression; and where fashion elevated the moving body, expressing the liberating power of rhythm.Through photographs and personal narratives, the book maps glamour as the common language of an era of collective creative expression — one that extended beyond the night and left a lasting cultural imprint.""" - Vogue Greece
