Art in Embassies
In 2022, Patrick's work was requested to be a part of "Art in Embassies." The ambassador to Poland, Mark Brzezinski, requested an exhibit that focused on the movement, lifestyle and joy of dance. Nine framed photographs from the "Empire Roller Disco" series will remain featured in the residence of the United States Ambassador to Poland as a part of the Art in Embassies exhibit during his tenure.

“In 1980, the acclaimed street photographer Patrick D. Pagnano went on assignment to document the Empire and its legendary cast of partygoers. The resulting photographs, gathered in Empire Roller Disco for the first time, capture the vibrant spirits, extraordinary styles, and sheer joys of Brooklyn roller disco at its dizzying peak.”
