Rude and Reckless: Punk/Post-Punk Graphics, 1976-82

Gene Greif... The Clash, Give ‘Em Enough Rope, US Version (1978, vintage poster). From the exhibition Rude and Reckless: Punk/Post-Punk Graphics, 1976-82 at Steven Kasher Gallery in New York. "...The exhibition showcases a wide range of American and British artistry, with influences that include the Bauhaus, Futurism, Dadaism, Pop Art, Constructivism and Expressionism. The exhibition features over 200 rare posters, along with fanzines, flyers, clothing, badges and stickers.
Rude and Reckless documents an era that produced a great burst of applied graphic-design creativity, one of the most subversive of the 20th Century. Vivid, violent and frequently acid tongued, the works in Rude and Reckless represent one of the truly authentic DIY youth culture movements of the Western World."
