Signed; Max Natkiel - Paradiso - 2013

An extraordinary book with 600 full-page photos of youths, including punks, rockers, mods, Moluccans, Rastafarians, and fans of heavy metal or new wave... from the 1980s to the 1990s.
The photos are dated, and you will find in the last pages the concerts to which they are associated (from Joy Division to Depeche Mode...).
Before his eyes, Natkiel witnessed the eruption of a raw, uncompromising youth: uncontrollable, fed up with the adult world, driven by a fierce desire to do things his own way. It was the last explosion of a young culture before the digital era. This singular era is indeed over, but thanks to a delicate balance between distance and involvement, Natkiel offers photographs that continue to intrigue and fascinate us.
2013 reissue with a preface by philosopher Dirk van Weelden.
