If Andy were still strutting about nowadays, he might just tweak his "In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes" to "in the future, everyone will be starring in her own documentary or reality TV series."
The latest beneficiary of such a crowd-funded, ego-boosting journey into her past travails is the prickly “Tasmanian Devil of Photography,” octogenarian Rose Hartman. You who are of a certain age, especially those of you with fashionista leanings, will recall this salty soul's snapshots or at least those who were apprehended by her lens: Kate Moss, Steve Rubell, Elizabeth Taylor, Liza Minnelli, Truman Capote, Lenny Kravitz, and Linda Evangelista. Her candid images were mostly taken at society functions, discos, and fashion shows.
As Hartman insists, "I don’t want a posed face ever."
Her initial claim to fame, according to director Otis Mass’s to-the-point documentary, is that Hartman was the first to shoot...

Last week we looked at a group of films among the mammoth collection of titles playing Doc NYC. The festival continues and so we're looking at a few more films, taking a sort of cinematic road trip from the big city, down the highway to the Rocky Mountains and then back again.
The “chiffon jungle” is what the subject of Otis Mass’ debut film, The Incomparable Rose Hartman, a fashion and pop culture photographer whose images are as iconic as they are striking, labels her home of New York City. A place where fashion is as integral to daily life as breath is to life. Feel to free disagree, but as the first person to understand the appeal of the decadent backstage of celebrity life and master it into something truly artful, Hartman soon built a reputation that put her subjects at ease and made her none synonymous with New...

At almost 80 years old, renowned photographer Rose Hartman remains one of the most vital New York artists living today. A fixture at Studio 54 for many years, Hartman reveled in stealthily documenting stars in candid shots, like Mick and Bianca Jagger, Andy Warhol and more. She was the first to move behind the curtains of Fashion Week catwalks to shoot models and designers at work, making quick fans of Donna Karan and Carolina Herrera. Though some describe her as brash and rude, many believe she has defined the New York City social scene for decades. Øtis Mass’ new documentary “The Incomparable Rose Hartman” paints a portrait of the indelible figure and examines the “Tasmanian Devil of photography.” Watch an exclusive trailer for the film below.
