Description
Punk and Oi!, hip hop, grindcore, crust and hardcore-house
While there have been various books and shows on specific aspects of the 1980's underground, this exhibition is perhaps the first attempt at a cross-decade overview.
It steps back from single genres or individual venues to survey the bigger picture and what really went on. Dismissed as a grey decade where money replaced self-expression, once the surface of the 1980s is scratched, its underground is revealed to be fascinating – a subversive and genuinely fertile period of youth culture.
This exploration is based around the idea of four representative years: 1982, 1984, 1987 and 1989.
