Viv Albertine

    Táto umelkyňa sa prejavuje prostredníctvom rôznorodých umeleckých foriem, od hudby cez film až po výtvarné umenie. Jej rané roky v chudobnejších pomeroch a prostredí umeleckých škôl ju formovali k nekonvenčnému pohľadu na svet. Jej práca sa vyznačuje experimentovaním so zvukmi a formami, inšpirovaná punkovou estetikou a umeleckými hnutiami svojej doby. Neskôr sa venovala filmovej tvorbe a teraz sa venuje sochárstvu a hudobnej tvorbe.

    • SUNDAY TIMES MUSIC BOOK OF THE YEAR ROUGH TRADE BOOK OF THE YEAR MOJO BOOK OF THE YEAR In 1975, Viv Albertine was obsessed with music but it never occurred to her she could be in a band as she couldn't play an instrument and she'd never seen a girl play electric guitar. A year later, she was the guitarist in the hugely influential all-girl band the Slits, who fearlessly took on the male-dominated music scene and became part of a movement that changed music. A raw, thrilling story of life on the frontiers and a candid account of Viv's life post-punk - taking in a career in film, the pain of IVF, illness and divorce and the triumph of making music again - Clothes Music Boys is a remarkable memoir.
