2007
Hubby invited artists, friends, and clients to Daniel Hug Gallery to have their pictures taken within an exaggerated corner backdrop inspired by Irving Penn. The twenty “models” wore Hubby created garments. After the portraits were taken the guests sat together on a piece of red carpet in the middle of the gallery on chairs they'd each brought from their own home. Each was given a disposable camera and were instructed to take pictures of each other throughout the night. Participants included Alice Könitz, Amy Adler, Whitney Cooke, Henry Taylor, Flora Wiegmann, Whitney Cooke, Jennifer Rochlin, Jonesy, Katie Brennan, Kim Light, Laura Schnitker, Maynard Monroe, Sarah Lehrer Graiwer, Steffie Nelson, Terri Phillips, Tomi Hurtado, Zoe Crosher, and others. Music was performed by Mr. Banjo (Tony Fernandez), followed by a DJ set by Hot Logic (Tif Sigfrids and Mari Eastman) with food designed and orchestrated by Jiva MacKay.
