Simon Burstall | Metal Magazine

Twenty-seven years ago, a 16-year-old boy discovered the culture of raves in Sidney and immersed fully into it. He found a place to be, to have fun, to disconnect from the world and connect with people, to get inspired. At the end of the day, we all look for a place where we feel like we belong. Our community. Simon Burstall was just a teenager shooting his friends while having fun. Many people do so, but that simple fact can make a difference when there is talent running through your veins. It was Simon’s case.

Michael Jang | Metal Magazine

After almost forty years, Michael Jang decided to submit the photographs he took in his twenties of his native California for consideration to SFMOMA. This is how this story begins. Punk subculture, his Chinese-American family or David Bowie are just some of the stars of his black-and-white pictures. He captured the essence of California in the 1970s and ‘80s. Through his work, you can revive those eclectic years, even if you weren’t there. Now in his sixties, we talk with him about his book Who is Michael Jang (published by Atélier Editions), his exhibition at SFMOMA and why you should never give up.
