Politics Business Science Sport Roses Freshers Muse › Arts › Features Reviews Books The Mott Collection – “Loud Flash: British Punk on Paper” By Lowenna Valerie Waters, Arts Editor (2009/10) Monday 11 October 2010 TM0077. Chelsea, The Fall, The Snivelling Shits, Gig Poster, The Music Machine, London 1978 The Haunch of Venison’s current exhibition is an entertaining, raucous, brash, anarchic rampage through the rebellious era of the British Punk movement. It consists of a vast amount of Punk memorabilia collected in the late 70s to early 80s by the artist and fashion designer Toby Mott. He amassed the collection from the age of 14 when he started attending Punk Gigs in Pimlico, and became involved with a gang of kids at his Secondary School who called themselves the ASA (Anarchist Street Army). This exhibition is defined by that flagpole of teenage rebellion, self assertion, youthful identity and belonging: the poster. The Punk movement utilised this vehicle of advertisement like no other. A poster can be seen as a physical embodiment of the Punk ethos: cheap, unapologetic and ephemeral; they can be pasted up as quickly as they are ripped down. They advertise gigs, anti racism rallies and ironically the Queens silver jubilee. There are also magazines, flyers, fanzines and leaflets that were used to spread the punk ideology to its recession bound, disenfranchised youth. The Haunch of Venison gallery commented, “This exhibition seeks to capture Punks cataclysmic collision with the cultural, social and economic views of the time and show the enduring legacy left in its wake.” http://nouse.co.uk/2010/10/11/the-mott-collection-loud-flash-british-punk-on- Archived 11 Dec 2018 paper 00:40:42 Nouse Web Archives The Mott Collection – “Loud Flash: British Punk on Paper” Page 2 of 4 TM0337. Candybeat 504 1977 Punk and its aesthetic are widely known through the bands that embodied the ideology; The Sex Pistols, The Buzzcocks, The Slits and the lesser known The Snivelling Shits to name but a few. Sid Vicious and Johnny Rotten’s unmistakeable violent snarling lyrics drove kids all over the country to abandon the boredom of their grey 70’s post war lives and to embrace the “Do it yourself, Do it now” ethos. Mott commented that most ephemera of the time were created by “kids in suburban bedrooms and garages with scissors, paste and photocopies.” In fanzines such as “Sniffin Glue”, with its marker pen scrawls this DIY ethos is starkly apparent. TM0399. Ripped and Torn 7 1977 The exhibition represents the punk aesthetic galvanised in iconic posters such as Linda Stirling’s subversive acid yellow poster for the Buzzcocks single “Orgasm Addict”, released in 1977. It features a photo collage of a naked woman with lips for nipples and an iron for her head. Likewise the infamous Sex Pistols “God save the Queen” poster designed by Jamie Reid and released to coincide with her 1977 Silver Jubilee. It features ramshackle newsprint covering the Queens face and a safety pin through her nose. Reid, the most well known and influential graphic artist of the Punk era is widely represented throughout the exhibition. For example there is a rare Sex Pistols, Anarchy in the UK tour publication magazine he designed featuring “Soo Catwoman”, a well known punk icon in London at the time, with her black winged eyes, dog collar, skull earring and horns immortalised in black and white print. The weekend I saw Loud Flash, I had been trawling through numerous amount of shows across London, and this one captured my imagination. It represents a snapshot of post war Britain, from the Rock against Racism gigs to the rise in popularity of the National Front to the patriotic propaganda coinciding with the Queens Jubilee. The fragments of ephemera on display exemplify the fast, aggressive, expendable ferocious outburst that was Punk. In the words of Johnny Rotten, “Don’t accept the old order. Get rid of it.” The Mott Collection: Loud Flash: British Punk on Paper is showing at The Haunch of Venison Gallery until the 30th October, 2010. http://nouse.co.uk/2010/10/11/the-mott-collection-loud-flash-british-punk-on- Archived 11 Dec 2018 paper 00:40:42 Nouse Web Archives The Mott Collection – “Loud Flash: British Punk on Paper” Page 3 of 4 Most Read Discussed 1.

ISBN 9781905620548 Format softback LOUD FLASH is a unique exhibition of posters curated by the artist and Pages 128 designer Toby Mott. His collection, which also incorporates fanzines, Illustrations 118 colour flyers and other ephemera, delivers a gripping snapshot of the Britain of that time, a country rife with divisions which was slowly Dimensions 210mm x 250mm awakening to the reality of its reduced status in the post-war world. Weight 530 As well as iconic works by Jamie Reid (for the Sex Pistols) and Linder Sterling (for the Buzzcocks), the exhibition features a wealth of material produced by anonymous artists of the era and so offers a complete survey of the punk aesthetic. It also includes political material. The rise of the National Front is charted through its incendiary propaganda, while the posters advertising ‘Rock Against Racism’ events show how this was opposed and how the designers adopted punk as stark graphical styles to entice young supporters. Alongside this, Mott, who has collected more than 1000 punk-related artefacts over a period of 30 years, has also included patriotic memorabilia from the Queen’s Silver Jubilee, which collided with the height of the punk explosion in 1977.

  • 3 Feet High and Rising”--De La Soul (1989) Added to the National Registry: 2010 Essay by Vikki Tobak (Guest Post)*
    “3 Feet High and Rising”--De La Soul (1989) Added to the National Registry: 2010 Essay by Vikki Tobak (guest post)* De La Soul For hip-hop, the late 1980’s was a tinderbox of possibility. The music had already raised its voice over tensions stemming from the “crack epidemic,” from Reagan-era politics, and an inner city community hit hard by failing policies of policing and an underfunded education system--a general energy rife with tension and desperation. From coast to coast, groundbreaking albums from Public Enemy’s “It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back” to N.W.A.’s “Straight Outta Compton” were expressing an unprecedented line of fire into American musical and political norms. The line was drawn and now the stage was set for an unparalleled time of creativity, righteousness and possibility in hip-hop. Enter De La Soul. De La Soul didn’t just open the door to the possibility of being different. They kicked it in. If the preceding generation took hip-hop from the park jams and revolutionary commentary to lay the foundation of a burgeoning hip-hop music industry, De La Soul was going to take that foundation and flip it. The kids on the outside who were a little different, dressed different and had a sense of humor and experimentation for days. In 1987, a trio from Long Island, NY--Kelvin “Posdnous” Mercer, Dave “Trugoy the Dove” Jolicoeur, and Vincent “Maseo, P.A. Pasemaster Mase and Plug Three” Mason—were classmates at Amityville Memorial High in the “black belt” enclave of Long Island were dusting off their parents’ record collections and digging into the possibilities of rhyming over breaks like the Honey Drippers’ “Impeach the President” all the while immersing themselves in the imperfections and dust-laden loops and interludes of early funk and soul albums.
