John Scarpati era el fotógrafo residente del Club Sunset Strip de Hollywood en los 80s, cuando estaba en pleno apogeo una escena rock que mezclaba sin tapujos el glam, el metal y el punk presentándose al público con llamativas indumentarias y aspectos que exageraban la herencia de las décadas previas. Scarpati, que con el tiempo se ha convertido en un reputado fotógrafo, retrató en esa época a la mayoría de aquellas bandas que hacían gala del exceso en todos los sentidos, imágenes que se recogen en su libro 'Cramp Slash & Burn' y en exhibiciones en galerías, impresas en lienzo cromado en lugar de papel fotográfico.
John Scarpati was the resident photographer for Hollywood's Sunset Strip Club in the '80s, when a thriving rock movement openly mixed glam, metal and punk resulting in many intended overworked looks exaggerating the legacy of previous decades. Scarpati, which over time has become a renowned photographer, portrayed at the time most of those bands from that scene of all kind of excesses, images that are collected in his book 'Cramp Slash & Burn' and has been exhibiting in galleries, printed on chromatic canvas instead of photo paper.
