€69.00
In '93 til, photographer Pete Thompson dives deep into his archives to shed light on a unique period of time when skateboarding was searching for an identity. A time before social media and big corporate influences, this collection of images spanning from 1986 to 2004 is a captivating portal into a decade and a culture that is remembered with warmth and nostalgia... Some call it "the golden era of skateboarding". Alongside Pete's imagery there are quotes and anecdotes from legends like Tony Hawk, Arto Saari, Jamie Thomas, Guy Mariano, Nyjah Huston, Geoff Rowley, Stevie Williams and others. Much of the photography Pete has unearthed for this book is rare, unpub-lished 35mm film photographs that were buried in boxes for almost two decades. Designed by Berlin-based designer and artist Jenne Grabowski, this book reveals a raw, unapologetic perspective of a world that no longer exists. About Pete Thompson : In a photography career spanning nearly three decades, Pete Thompson worked as senior staff photographer for Transworld Skateboarding Magazine and contributing photographer for SLAP and Skateboarder Magazine. Pete has photographed many of the best skateboarders in the world in the '90s before leaving the skateboard industry in 2004. After relocating to NYC in 2008, and assisting Danish fashion photographer Anders Overgaard, Pete's work made a pivotai shift, exploring a more nuanced, spontaneous feeling. His current work focuses on capturing candid moments that communicate a spirit of honesty and authenticity. Pete currently resides in Brooklyn, NY.
