National Conservation Centre: Sound and Vision
1st May 2009 to 31st August 2009
Music and fashion photographed by Francesco Mellina, Liverpool 1978-82
An exhibition of previously unseen pictures recording the many different fashion scenes in Liverpool clubland during the late 1970s and early 1980s. Individuality and self-expression, through dress and musical innovation, was the order of the day during this pivotal period in British popular culture. In the aftermath of punk and before multi-national brands took over the high street, local styles included New Wave, Northern Soul, New Romantic and Rockabilly.
Photographer Francesco Mellina trained at Liverpool Art School and was well known on the Liverpool club scene at the time. After managing Dead or Alive he developed a career as a rock photographer, capturing some of the most iconic bands of the period.
