Paige Powell’s Intimate Images of Warhol, Madonna and Basquiat

Interview Magazine’s former associate publisher Paige Powell moved to New York City in 1980 and quickly became intertwined in the city’s electrifying social scene. As part of a historic group of friends—including Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, Madonna and Jean-Michel Basquiat (who was also her boyfriend at the time)—Powell spent many nights exploring New York’s clubs, restaurant and shops, snapping countless photos along the way. After holding onto the photos for nearly 40 years, Powell now plans to display them at a new exhibition at the Portland Art Museum. View a few of the intimate images at T Magazine.
