"Skinhead" (1958–), a collection of works by British photographer Nick Knight. While Knight is now known as an innovator in fashion photography, this book is an early work based on his graduation project while studying at Bournemouth and Poole School of Art, documenting skinhead culture in Britain in the early 1980s. Emerging as a working-class youth culture in the late 1960s, skinheadism spread through music, fashion, and camaraderie, taking on complex social imagery over time. Knight delved into this culture, quietly observing the young people through portraits, gatherings, and fragments of daily life. His keen observations and detached perspective make his photographs more than just a record of a subculture; they serve as a document conveying the atmosphere of class and youth culture in British society at the time. In contrast to his later, more flamboyant fashion photography, this is an important book that shows Knight's starting point. Reprint edition.
