Beschreibung
Celebrating a wide range of punk design in vinyl cover art, posters, flyers, fanzines and other ephemera, The Art of Punk highlights the movement primarily within graphic design and print, while also considering its impact on wider popular culture.
  • Over 900 images featuring such legendary bands as the Sex Pistols, the Ramones, the Damned, the New York Dolls, and the Clash Also traces the punk underground scenes throughout Europe, Australia, Southeast Asia, South America, the former USSR, Scandinavia, China, and Africa

The book is arranged chronologically, and by genre, and features more than 900 visual examples both by uncredited artists and internationally renowned designers and design groups, alongside interviews with, and commentary by, many of the artists concerned.

Punk was based on immediacy--an often-inspired amateurism and underground, close-knit communities that burned brightly but were not intended to extend beyond the gig, the event, the scene, the moment. Punk songs by such legendary bands as the Sex Pistols, the Ramones, the Damned, the New York Dolls, the Germs, and the Clash tended to be short, fast, and aggressive. The oft-repeated credo "If it can't be said in three minutes, it's not worth saying" was adopted as standard practice and extended to the whole subculture.
