I'm a Cliche

In the late 70's, the Punk subculture began to spread all over the the UK and Western Europe: Rock Punk, New wave, and Street Punk. "I'm a Cliché" is a book statement on the "Blank Generation" scene in Paris, London Birmingham and Berlin. 

Cynicism and despair are just the veneer. The style is always violent: wide angle and flash in the dark at the Roxy or the Vortex. This time the show is not on stage anymore but also among us … it looks like another planet. 

Meet The Clash, The Damned, The Slits, X-Ray Spex, Generation X, The Guilty Razors, Asphalt Jungle and their friends. Images from the book have been exhibited at the Gallery Agnes B in Paris, Gainsbourg show (City of Music), RIP (International Photography show in Arles) in Japan, Korea and Brazil.
