Tribute, the museum and art space located in lower Manhattan has created a total 1970s immersion exhibit which will run through July 10th. The entire museum will flash visitors back to the era of pop art, hedonism, political cynicism, etc. as it brings Award-winning photographer Allan Tannenbaum's book New York in the 70s to life.

About Allan Tannenbaum:
Allan Tannenbaum's first real break into the photography business was a five-dollar assignment for the Soho News, a downtown New York City weekly. Tannenbaum quickly made a name for himself with his shots of New York night life, celebrities, and political events. He earned the respect of prominent New Yorkers and eventually landed an exclusive photo session with John Lennon and Yoko Ono, one week before the Beatle was killed. Those photos drew world-wide attention for Tannenbaum, who, according to an early agreement with the Soho News, maintained complete copyright on all his photos.

Tannenbaum stuck with the weekly until it closed in March 1982. He then signed up with the photo agency PolarisImages and pursued his true passion -- international news photography.
