Description
Post-Punk Then and Now by Sue Clayton, Kodwo Eshun, and Green Gartside offers new perspectives on an overlooked period of cultural activity. This book explores how post-punk art, film, music, and publishing were shaped in the late 1970s and early 1980s, and what lessons can be learned from this era for artists and musicians working under current conditions of austerity. The authors examine the role of punk in turning artists to experiment with popular music, and how post-punk's influence continues to resonate today. By probing the cultural significance of this period, the book sheds new light on the production and reception of art and music during a time of significant social change. This collection provides valuable insights into the creative responses to economic and political pressures, making it an interesting read for anyone interested in the intersection of art, politics, and culture.
