Book of the Week: A Pick by Clare Strand

Punks by Karen Knorr & Olivier Richon. Gost Books, 2013.

 

This week's book of the week pick comes from photographer Clare Strand who selected Punks by Olivier Richon and Karen Knorr.

"The book I have chosen is Punks by Olivier Richon and Karen Knorr. I have chosen this book as its subject seems so unlikely from these two authors. I have also chosen it because of the beautiful production by GOST Books and, like every great book, it smells good too.


Olivier and Karen are both known for their intense theoretical and allegorical work, and to think of them hanging out on the punk scene seemed somewhat incongruous to my preconceptions. When this book came out it made me jump and made me think about people in a different way—it also reminded me how great it is to be young." — Clare Strand
