Description
Lydia Lunch: A Life of Unapologetic Art and Resistance Lydia Lunch is a name synonymous with the No Wave scene of the 1970s, a movement that paved the way for future generations of musicians and artists. As the founder of Teenage Jesus & The Jerks, Lunch has built a four-decade-long career on turning her life into unflinching, raw art. From the 1980s onwards, Lunch became a vocal critic of patriarchal aggression and violence, using her platform to speak truth to power. Her music, spoken word performances, and collaborations in film, theatre, and other mediums have all been part of a campaign of resistance that celebrates pleasure as a powerful act of defiance. This book is the first comprehensive overview of Lunch's creative work, featuring contributions from collaborators including Thurston Moore, Jim Sclavunos, Kid Congo Powers, Bob Bert, Richard Kern, Nick Zedd, and Vivienne Dick.
