Fiorucci Made Me Hardcore (1999) by Mark Leckey

Fiorucci Made Me Hardcore by Mark Leckey (15:00, video, 1999)

Everybody dance now.

Described by one commentator as the best thing they’d ever seen in a gallery, Fiorucci Made Me Hardcore is an extended paean to the unadulterated bliss of nocturnal abandon. A documentary of sorts, Leckey’s video chronicles the rites of passage experienced by successive generations of British (sub)urban youth.
