"Switch-foot è un libro unico nel suo genere che raccoglie in 210 pagine a colori il lavoro di una grande comunità di artisti/surfisti che approcciano similmente tra loro al mondo del surf, rendendo il giusto tributo alla storia del surf, della musica, dell'arte in generale, alle leggende del surf e alla fotografia surf, mantenendo nel contempo la loro indipendenza e creatività.
Una grande family, una grande sub-cultura".
"Abbiamo sfogliato il libro rimanendo a bocca aperta per la qualità e la selezione dei lavori pubblicati, sia che fossero foto di onde, paesaggi, line-up, ritratti, disegni, quadri o racconti. In questo libro c'e' molto di più delle foto che raccoglie. Ogni pagina racconta delle emozioni, dichiara senza discrezioni una visione nitida e a colori saturi sul mondo del surf. Visione che condividiamo in toto. Probabilmente faremo di Switch-foot la nostra bandiera". (TOESOVER.IT)
Switch-Foot is a new surfing publication out of Australia. With a heavy leaning towards the non-competitive side of surfing, this 210 page hardcover book is a must have for every collector. Switch-foot is a collective of like-minded people giving respect to the history of surfing, music, art, surfing legends and surfing photography while retaining independence and creativity.
This book is one man’s vision and you can feel that when you hold it in your hands, a publication that hasn’t been changed due to editorial correctness or time constraints. An independent production, with an Australian focus, over two years of full time work with over 50 contributors.
Con la partecipazione di:
Dave Rastovich, George Greenough, Thomas Campbell, Andrew Kidman, Harry the Hat, Alex Knost, Bob McTavish, Peter Townend, Rabbit Bartholomew, Albe Falzon, Dick Van Straalen, Tom Wegener, Peter Drouyn, Nat and Beau Young, Neal Purchase, Mark Richards, Jack Eden, Peter Crawford, Chris Brock, Jim Banks, Midget Farrelly, Dain Thomas, John and Paul Witzig, Dick Hoole, Terepai Richmond, Michael Peterson, Nigel Arnison, Gary Birdsall, Steve Cooney, Laurie McGuiness, Xavier Rudd, Anthony YEP Colas, and Daniel Crocket.
Switch-foot is classic surfing, music and art with a cast of contributors that really brings together a tight little community of surfers spanning three generations. Written for a more mature ‘gentleman of the surf,’ Switch-foot also encourages young surfers/artists who are interested in more than competitive surfing.
