Opplysninger | "For the duration of the 1970s and onward--from his days as a student at the School of Visual Arts through the foundation of the era-defining band Blondie and his subsequent reign as epicenter of punk's golden age--Chris Stein kept an unrivaled photographic record of the downtown New York City scene. Following in the footsteps of Negative: Me, Blondie, and the Advent of Punk, this spectacular new book presents a more personal and more visceral collection of Chris Stein's photographs of the era. The images presented here take us from self-portraits in his run-down East Village apartment to candid photographs of pop-cultural icons of the time and evocative shots of New York City streetscapes in all their most longed-for romance and dereliction. An eclectic cast of cultural characters--from William Burroughs to Debbie Harry, Andy Warhol to Iggy Pop--appear here exactly as they were in the day, juxtaposed with children playing hopscotch on torn-down blocks, riding the graffiti-ridden subway, or cruising the burgeoning clubs of the Bowery. At once a chronicle of one music icon's life among his punk and New-Wave heroes and peers, and a love letter to the city that was the backdrop and inspiration for those scenes, Point of View transports us to another place and time"--Dust jacket
