Eines der wichtigsten und schönsten Bücher zur Jugendkultur des Punk. – Mit hervorragenden Aufnahmen aus der Londoner Szene und Portraits von „Johnny (He who laughs last) Rotten“ u. a. Darunter mehrere Fotos und die wohl bekannteste Aufnahme des Vogue-Fotografen und Malers Steven Johnston eines Punker-Pärchens. – After graduating from Carlisle Art School, Steve Johnston began to make a living by photographing musicians, including those associated with the punk movement. – „He began working for Vogue in 1977 and published his first book of punk photography in 1978. In 1980, he moved to the newly launched i-D magazine. In 1991, after many successful years in photography, Johnston returned to painting. His creations often use horizontal line to allude to his local environment“ (D. Donoghue, SHOWstudio). – Der Herausgeber Terry Jones (geb. 1945) war von 1972 bis 1977 Art Director der britischen Vogue. – „In 1977 Jones had commissioned the photographer Steve Johnston for a head-to-toe-portrait series of punk youth on London’s King’s Road. The series was considered too radical for publication in BritishVogue, so Jones used it for his book Not Another Punk Book (Aurum Press). This kind of documentary approach to fashion photography, then labelled the Straight-up, became one of the trade marks of Terry Jones’ own upcoming publication i-D“ (Wikipedia). – Sehr gutes Exemplar.
