Since the 1980's Martin Sorrondeguy has been documenting punk music scenes—including U.S., Mexico, Japan, South America, Australia, and Europe—through pictures. While on tour and at shows, Sorrondeguy captures the intersection of gender, culture, and music. His work focuses on people, music, and art that the purposefully avoids mainstream attention.
I like his work because it shows the changes that punk has gone through since he began taking pictures, as well as differences between specific cities' music scenes. In order to take photographs at punk shows, Sorrondeguy often must put his camera at risk by being a part of the violent audience.
