Karlheinz Weinberger, Lake Biel, St. Petersinsel, 1963.
Karlheinz Weinberger (1921 – 2006) is famous for documenting incredible-looking juvenile delinquents in Switzerland in the late 50s and early 60s, and also for having his style ripped off by contemporary fashion designers, photographers, and stylists, like, all the time. His last book, published in 2000, is out of print and going for a minimum of $500 on eBay, but thankfully Rizzoli is publishing a new book of his work, called Rebel Youth. It comes out on February 8th.
It’s almost the middle of January, which means our January issue just came out! Right now it’s all bundled up on the backs of trucks and making its way to a bunch of random stores/bars that are probably somewhere near where you live. It’s called The Barking Dog issue, and it’s got a ferocious canine on the cover.
