@nick_knight here. It's day 1 of my punk themed Instagram takeover. In 2012, I interviewed Sheila Rock as part of @SHOWstudio’s Punk: Photography project and she told me how this famous shot of Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm McLaren’s Sex boutique from 1974 came to be. Rock was shooting Sex’s famous shop assistant, Jordan, outside the shop when a passerby stopped to stare at her striking appearance. Rock captured the moment and the contrast in attitude and style between the two figures. It's such a wonderful image. At @SHOWstudio we're keen to understand what images symbolise punk to you today - tell us via #PunkToday.... #igtakeover #thephotographersgallery #nickknight #showstudio #punk, http://ift.tt/1P139Hc from thephotographersgallery instagram, http://ift.tt/1XMo9bx

It's @Nick_Knight here. Day 1 of my punk-themed Instagram take-over. Ku Khan took this photograph of two punk girls in 1977 and it’s one of my favourite images from the era. Khan told me he often went to see the Sex Pistols and other bands around Notting Hill. He bought a Balcar flash and stood at the entrance to the theatre with his camera asking people to pose in front of the wall as they came in. One girl has the other on a leash, and there is something so compelling about their sense of style and innate attitude. It's a true example of using dress to provoke - if you went out like that now you'd still spark a reaction. #igtakeover #thephotographersgallery #showstudio #nickknight #punk, http://ift.tt/1RILhke from thephotographersgallery instagram, http://ift.tt/1PfyzPm

Hello! @Nick_Knight here. For my Instagram take-over I'm going to be posting a selection of my favourite punk images to celebrate the 40th anniversary of punk and an upcoming collaboration between @SHOWstudio and TPG for the Punk Weekender from 23 - 26 June. In 2012, I interviewed many of the key figures who captured the movement and its participants - Sheila Rock, Dennis Morris, Jon Savage, Jonh Ingham, Steve Emberton, Bob Gruen, Kevin Cummins, Ku Khanh, Pennie Smith, Ray Stevenson, Peter Vernon, Kate Simon, Judy Linn, Steve Johnston - about their images for @SHOWstudio's 'Punk: Photography' project. I'll be sharing extracts and snippets from those conversations over the coming week... #igtakeover #thephotographersgallery #showstudio #nickknight #punk, http://ift.tt/1RILWC4 from thephotographersgallery instagram, http://ift.tt/1PfylYD

Hey everybody, I hope you’re enjoying the takeover so far! @luisawhitton2.0 Welcome to Day 4! Today, I wanted to explore a mini-theme of ‘How to make an Android’. The most interesting idea for me to think about is what brings this object to life? Is it the electricity, the internal mechanics, the artistic intention of creating a replica, or simply looking at something that stares back at you? This image is taken from an editorial I did for the @eveningstandardmagazine on John Nolan’s Animatronics Studio (http://ift.tt/1scwmtT) #eveningstandardmagazine #animatronics #igtakeover #thephotographersgallery #luisawhitton #whatabouttheheart #barturphotobookaward, http://ift.tt/1OPdVQK from thephotographersgallery instagram, http://ift.tt/1scwdXr

This is Luisa Whitton @luisawhitton2.0 doing the #IGTakeover this week. "Were you ever daguerreotyped, O Immortal man? […] —but, unhappily, the total expression escaped from the face and the portrait of a mask instead of a man? Could you not by grasping it very tight hold the stream of a river, or of a small brook, and prevent it from flowing?” (Ralph Waldo Emerson 1841) Image: ‘Real-F’, 2013 #igtakeover #thephotographersgallery #luisawhitton #whatabouttheheart #barturphotobookaward, http://ift.tt/20BOOqA from thephotographersgallery instagram, http://ift.tt/1sQ0uvO

#Day3 from the series #whatabouttheheart @luisawhitton2.0 “Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter. The sitter is merely the accident, the occasion. It is not he who is revealed by the painter; it is rather the painter who, on the coloured canvas, reveals himself. The reason I will not exhibit this picture is that I am afraid that I have shown in it the secrets of my own soul.” (The Picture of Dorian Grey, Oscar Wilde 1908) Image: ’Portrait of Geminoid-F’, 2013 #igtakeover #thephotographersgallery #luisawhitton #whatabouttheheart #BarTurPhotobookAward, http://ift.tt/1YXZgIJ from thephotographersgallery instagram, http://ift.tt/1WS3nZw
