The Cramps, Lydia Lunch, the Dead Boys, Nick Cave: SHOT ! IN THE DARK !
The Gun Club, Siouxie Sioux, Peter Perrett, the Damned…
All shot! In the dark! David Johansen, John Cale, Joan Jett!
By David Arnoff, punk photographer par excellence.
Back then, these pictures graced the pages of the New York Rocker, Slash or the Back Door Man. And greatest thing of all: the first Cramps album cover: Songs The Lord Taught Us. Not to mention the Fleshtones’ first album and Stiv Bators’ solo album.
The Ramones on stage D.U.M.B.’ing each other, Lux and Ivy peeping through the blinds, Ian Dury at Bela Lugosi’s mansion in Hollywood, Henry Rollins frolicking with Lydia Lunch, Nick Cave hanging out with Groucho Marx.
And now, these very same frozen moments in time come to life against the fiery red walls of HOK Gallery. After The Hague, HOK will ship off the David Arnoff expo to Germany, for a show in Berlin’s legendary Salon36 in Kreuzberg.
Never mind what Nick Cave has to say about David Arnoff: “He’s an arsehole, but he’s a good photographer.”
A good photographer? A great one!
