There are names we are all too familiar with when it comes to #Punk: #MalcolmMcClaren, #JamieReid, the #SexPistols- names that have residences in books, museums and popular culture. But if there ever was a subculture that galvanized all people- regardless of wealth, class or age- to get up and do ‘it’ themselves, it was Punk. Those big names lead the way, demonstrating that no skill is necessary to give it ago. The tools aren’t even necessary in some case- that just adds to the art and story of it all. It was all about #DIY, bricolage, bedroom labor- and for the first time, amateurs took up instruments, print, art or styling themselves to add to a collective voice in anger. Using whatever they could find, everyone from teens to teachers could explore a whole world of subversion to accelerate impeaching and action. The zines of Jamie Reid, the music of #theClash or the clothes of #VivienneWestwood only make up 20% of this febrile movement that shook the world.
So why don’t we see more of the lesser-known works of Punk? For the same reason that Museum storage rooms are packed with expensive dresses of years past- those are the significant items that are cherished, and therefor have longer lifetimes. Punk pieces of the people were not wedding dresses- these were things that were raw, ripped, and disposable- very much like the movement itself. Which makes it all the more exciting, when a book like ‘#OhSoPretty- Punk in Print’ by #RickPoynor and #TobyMott is published. A visual summation of the quest for the forgotten, everyday mementoes of Punk- this incredible book contains evidence of where the power of Punk emitted- the people. Not just the well-known names, it was a seismic shift in culture that was lead by boots on ground, on secondhand typewriters and in cheap glue and tape. This book may be sleek and sophisticated, but it doesn’t detract from the anarchic fury, the crude love, the inexpert efforts to stand out and say something. 500 examples of the lesser known flyers, zines, buttons and badges sit shoulder to shoulder with the names that paved the way for the everyday people to turn to Punk.
