Friedrichs<\/a> was born in Frankfurt in 1966.He studied photography in Munich and has worked as a freelance photojournalistfor a number of magazines including The New York Times, Geo and Stern. In 2008,he received the prestigious Lead Award for Best Reportage Photography of theYear.

Friedrichslives in London.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"font-size: 12px\">ABOUT THE BOOK:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With their tattoos, leather jackets, slicked-back hair andbeloved British motorbikes &#8211; BSAs, Triumphs, Nortons, and Royal Enfields -Rockers are the nemesis and antithesis of the fastidiously groomed Mods. Elvis,James Dean, and Marlon Brando, synonymous with rebellion, created the spark, the British Rockers of the 59 Club honed the rocker style and created a global cult. Friedrichs follows the British rocker tribe as itsmembers congregate in parking lots, pubs, cafes, dance and pool halls, as wellas huge gatherings at Jacks Hill and the Ace Cafe. Alternating between rich,vibrant colour and gritty black and white, these photographs capture a spiritof unapologetic defiance in clothing as well as attitude, every bit as strongtoday as it was sixty years ago. Trenchant and revealing commentary fromFriedrichs&#8217; subjects sheds light on the impulses, yearnings, and motivations ofthis enduring international rebel chic subculture.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/assets\/images\/blog\/July Blogs\/August Blogs\/2.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/assets\/images\/blog\/July Blogs\/August Blogs\/3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"670\" height=\"444\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/assets\/images\/blog\/July Blogs\/August Blogs\/4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"670\" height=\"444\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/assets\/images\/blog\/July Blogs\/August Blogs\/11.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"670\" height=\"444\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/assets\/images\/blog\/July Blogs\/August Blogs\/5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"670\" height=\"444\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/assets\/images\/blog\/July Blogs\/August Blogs\/10.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"670\" height=\"444\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/assets\/images\/blog\/July Blogs\/August Blogs\/15.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"670\" height=\"444\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/assets\/images\/blog\/July Blogs\/August Blogs\/16.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"670\" height=\"444\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"font-size: 12px\">21st CENTURY ROCKERS PHOTO GALLERY AT LEWIS LEATHERS SHOP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The book will launched in September during the Brighton Burn Up(<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ace-cafe-london.com\/default.aspx?view=1&amp;date=01\/09\/2010%2000:00:00&amp;m=09&amp;y=2010\">Ace Caf&eacute; Reunion weekend<\/a>) (10th &#8211; 12th September) at Lewis Leathers, wheresigned copies of the book will be available at &pound;19.99 (+ P&amp;P for Mail Order, please email for rates). <\/p>\n<p>Lewis Leathers will also be hosting a gallery of someof Horst&rsquo;s original photographs from the book, this will run from Saturday the 11th until the end of September; LewisLeathers is located at 3-5 Whitfield Street, London W1T 2SA, Tel: 020 7636 4314.<\/p>\n<p>Opening times are: 11am to 6pmMonday to Friday. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With their tattoos, leather jackets, slicked-backhair and beloved British motorbikes &#8211; BSAs, Triumphs, Nortons, and RoyalEnfields &#8211; Rockers are the nemesis and antithesis of the fastidiously groomedMods.
