About this item

"Plenty of documentaries, books and zines tell the stories of DC punk from the perspective of men. But why aren't more women involved in the conversation? The question struck local photographer Antonia Tricarico as she was compiling her first book...Concert photos in the book feature seminal local acts including Fugazi, Deep Lust and Priests, along with bigger touring names such as Joan Jett. Many of the photos were taken at DC-area venues, though some were shot in places around the world (including Tricarico's home country of Italy) . Adding a personal touch are the 14 essays from punk's trailblazing women--including Jett and Kristina Sauvage of Coup Sauvage & the Snips."--Washington Post Express"There's no shortage of visual documentation of Washington's punk scene over the years, but Frame of Mind: Punk Photos and Essays from Washington, DC, and Beyond, 1997-2017, a new book out next week by the photographer Antonia Tricarico, evokes a lot more than memories of sweaty nights at Fort Reno.
