AK 75 - 85
Ten years of New Zealand pop culture glory.
Overview
One for the music lovers, Murray Cammick, the co-founder of RipitUp magazine seems like a pretty cool guy. He documented Bob Marley's 1979 visit to New Zealand and a time of cultural change in many of Auckland's seedy local venues packed with alienated youth and sweaty musicians.
AK 75 - 85 is ten years of the artist's work of New Zealand pop culture glory.
Cammick says, "For years I've regretted that I did not capture the beauty of Debbie Harry in my 1977 photos, but now I am starting to appreciate that they show a tired young woman who briefly leaves an international flight to do a day's promo...Debbie Harry arrived from the USA at dawn — a day of interviews in Auckland, then on a plane to Melbourne for a TV interview that night. That's life."
That should be enough of a quote to pique your interest.
