“HOMECOMING”, a week-long pop-up hub for events, programs, performances, socializing and art during New York Fashion Week is a celebration of the city’s creative community curated by Dossier Journal with a portrait studio by photographer Dan Martensen sponsored by Vans. “HOMECOMING” is taking over a storefront location on Elizabeth Street in Nolita, one of the most vibrant neighborhoods of Manhattan during one of the most exciting weeks of the year. As New York shifts and changes, the downtown artist community has become more and more fragmented. “HOMECOMING” reclaims the physical space of downtown Manhattan, celebrating the intersection of creativity in the music, fashion, street, art, literature and film scenes, bringing them all together under one roof to capture this specific moment in time.
Throughout the week renowned fashion, portrait and documentary photographer Dan Martensen will operate an old-fashioned style portrait studio that will document the international artists, fashionista’s, tastemakers, skaters, locals, athletes and New York icons that fill New York City during fashion week, creating a yearbook time capsule of this moment in New York. The shoots will include both appointments and walk-ins with key players from the fashion, street, art, film and music worlds. The “HOMECOMING” space, designed by acclaimed set designer Peter Klein, will transform daily to accommodate the week’s many activities, ranging from smaller, more intimate engagements like lectures to larger live music events and dance parties. “HOMECOMING” will serve as a gathering place during the day, providing a space for people to relax between shows, grab some coffee, hang out and have their picture taken.
