Punk and Other Four Letter Words: 1980’s Punk, Goth and Rock Photographs by Linda Aronow
Linda Aronow
As a teen growing up in the 80’s, Linda Aronow fell in love with punk rock...and photography. After “borrowing” her father’s Canon AE1 she became a staple at shows across Southern California, often at the edge of the stage shooting the bands of the time, many of them still going strong, and many now gone forever.
Linda has had several solo exhibitions as well as group shows; her work has been published in “Corporate Rock Sucks,” used for the cover of “Rozz Williams In His Own Words”, and has photos featured in several documentaries including T.S.O.L. “Ignore Heroes” and Redd Kross “Born Innocent”.
Her work has been licensed by various independent record labels including Cleopatra, Dionysus, Demon Records, Radiation Records, and Mystic Records, as well as print publications such as L.A. Reader, Generation Magazine, Not Like You Zine, and Razorblades and Aspirin. Linda has several photos on display at the Punk Rock Museum in Las Vegas.
This is a collection of some of her favorite punk, goth, and rock photos from this period.
