Musée Magazine spotlights the exhibition Heatwave, on view at Edwynn Houk Gallery through July 25.
The show brings together works by Lillian Bassman, Sally Mann, Joel Meyerowitz, Herb Ritts, and others to explore the theme of heat—not just as a climatic condition, but as a sensory and emotional force. From sun-soaked beaches to shadowy interiors, the photographs evoke summer’s intensity through light, texture, and atmosphere. Whether meditating on memory, desire, or the weight of stillness, Heatwave reveals how photography can capture the invisible temperature of experience.
