A bold, gritty, and iconic portrayal of New York’s downtown underground in the 1970s, White Trash Uncut captures the raw electricity of a city on the edge—where punk, queer identity, and urban chaos collided to form a new visual language.

This 2017 reissue breathes new life into Christopher Makos’s cult classic. While it omits the original 1977 edition’s three tri-fold posters, it compensates with additional, previously unpublished photographs that expand and deepen the archive of Makos’s confrontational yet tender lens. The result is a refreshed, unfiltered chronicle of glamour, filth, and artistic freedom at the height of cultural rebellion.

Makos, a close collaborator of Warhol, turns his camera toward the underbelly of Manhattan to produce a visual anthem of rebellion and desire—White Trash Uncut is more than a book; it’s a manifesto dressed in leather, eyeliner, and truth.

A must-have for collectors of punk history, queer visual culture, and transgressive photography.
