Abstract
Abstract This article explores the connection between punk culture and artistic expression, drawing on a series of interviews with contemporary artists and designers who reflect the notion of ‘punk art’ and featuring their work to show how this continues to thrive in an independent context through music graphics, fanzines, comics, posters and flyers, professional work practices, such as tattoo design, and the art world. It outlines the prominent, established names in punk art and design before looking beyond it to a selection of people whose lived experience of punk is reflected in their work. This article draws out what connection, if any, there is between punk politics, values and ideals and various forms of artistic expression, while issues of high vs. low, commercial vs. DIY and collaborative vs. individualistic forms of practice provide recurrent themes throughout.
