Post Punk: Then and Now

Post Punk: Then and Now

by Kodwo Eshun Editor, Gavin Butt Editor, Mark Fisher Editor, Sue Clayton Contributor, Green Gartside Contributor and Lydia Lunch Contributor

The interviews and reflections in this book focus on the production of post-punk art, film, music, and publishing. A celebration of avant-garde culture in the 1970s and 1980s, with pieces from the people who made the art at that time plus contemporary artists and scholars who were influenced by this era. An academic tone pervades the book, but the interview format of most of the pieces keeps it accessible and interesting. A cool look back at the recent history of the underground movements that shaped our current culture.
