Long before digital filters, retouching apps, and the age of Instagram, there was Richard Bernstein, the artist who turned celebrity into high art and magazine covers into cultural landmarks.

Known for his electrifying airbrushed portraits and fearless approach to fame, Bernstein defined the look of an era. His covers for Interview magazine in the 1970s and ’80s - featuring icons like Grace Jones, Madonna, Mick Jagger, and Jerry Hall - didn’t just depict the stars of the time. They created them.

Bernstein was more than a photographer, he was a visual provocateur. Working closely with Andy Warhol, he helped shape Interview into the ultimate guide to who was hot, what was happening, and where culture was headed next. His work merged glamour with grit, sophistication with shock. Each portrait was a collision of energy, attitude, and artistry - transforming well-known faces into something almost mythic.

The result? A visual style that defined the Studio 54 generation - decadent, daring, and utterly magnetic.

Sonic Editions is proud to present a curated collection of Richard Bernstein’s most iconic works. Each print is a portal to a time when fame was art and the night belonged to those who knew how to shine.
