New punk exhibition: It's the living dead

“It was all against the systemic control of the music system. This idea of provocation in the streets, the field of punk was a social protest, elements of that still exist" - the curator, Andrew Blauvelt, says to Guardian, about new exhibition Too Fast to Live, Too Young to Die: Punk Graphics, 1976–1986 about graphic design in punk, on display at Museum of Arts and Design in New York. "Punk never dies. It’s kind of the living dead. It’s about a disaffection with the older generation and the status quo, if you will. It will always be alive” - Blauvelt is convinced.
