- Summary
- This first-of-its-kind collection presents photographer Karlheinz Weinberger{u2019}s influential portraits of rebel youth of the sixties. While Karlheinz Weinberger is known as a pioneer of male erotic imagery, the Swiss amateur photographer also left an indelible mark on the fashion world with his decades-long documenting of vibrant rebel youth culture. These working-class teenagers created looks that fused iconic American pop culture imagery{u2014}biker jackets, denim jeans, bouffant hairdos, James Dean insouciance{u2014}with their own idiosyncratic sensibilities. From the late 1950s through the {u2019}60s, Weinberger captured the defiant glamour of these youths with a keen eye for their provocative handmade designs. Inspired by the rebel youth{u2019}s pop playfulness and fierce individuality, a legion of contemporary fashion-industry leaders have been profoundly influenced by the photographs collected in this stunning volume.
