A real masterpiece! It was a very pleasant--and unexpected--surprise indeed. The book is a glorious MONSTER, with huge color photographs and amazing B&W images. Glen''s work splendidly captures historic moments in time." -DangerousMinds.net "My Rules is the new book from Glen E. Friedman with the best of his early skate, punk, and hip-hop photography along with essays by the key players in each movement." -The Skateboard Mag   "My Rules, the 324-page tome has over 350 photographs and illustrations, and comes with contributing essays by such culture heavyweights as the visual artist Shepard Fairey, Chuck D. of the Public Enemy...The book is a pretty comprehensive source of Friedman''s here-and-now style of photography. Many photos of skaters mid-stride and bands mid-riff could not have been taken otherwise. Whether skate, punk, or hip-hop, Friedman photographed those who rebelled against the society that did not accept them in the first place. That some of them went on to influence popular culture and made it to the top of that very same society still seems somewhat strange. Whether Friedman is right or wrong is up for debate. But his photos, as a testament to the cultural energy in American streets in the late 20th Century, are not."  -StyleZeitgeist Magazine   "A comprehensive new book of Friedman''s photographs celebrates four decades of youth rebellion. My Rules is a stunning, 324-page time capsule of counterculture''s most revealing moments, serving as a bible for youth in revolt looking for honest inspiration." -Fader Magazine   " The Man Behind the Most Iconic Portraits of Skaters, Punks, and Rappers. The best of these portraits has been compiled in a new photo anthology called My Rules . At the time, Friedman says he was just making pictures of what inspired him. He had no idea he was creating an important historical record of some of the era''s most influential musicians." -Wired   "...represents some 30 years and 7 pounds of gorgeous hardcore, hiphop, and skateboarding history. " - Boingboing.net "It''s seems an insult that the work of photographer Glen E. Friedman isn''t more well known. The style of image he pioneered -- a wide-eyed and wide-angled directness, at once natural and posed -- is taken for granted in our popular culture, which has boldly ripped him off with very little credit. My Rules is a trip down memory lane, collecting many of Friedman''s most memorable images throughout his life, bridging the countercultures of punk/hip-hop and skateboarding, fused by their confrontational styles. Interspersed between the clusters of images are recollections from some of Friedman''s collaborators and subjects, including rapper Chuck D of Public Enemy, former Black Flag singer Henry Rollins, and the artist Shepard Fairey, who collaborated on the design of the book with Friedman." - Artinfo   "Glen E. Friedman has spent the last 40 years creating the iconic images often associated with skateboarding, punk rock and hip hop and his new book, My Rules , brings an incredible collection of photographs from his archive together in one massive seven-pound tome. Friedman spoke to American Photo about combing through his archives, capturing counterculture movements and the never-before-seen gems that initially slipped through the cracks." - American Photo   "My Rules isn''t Friedman''s debut, but rather an expansion on his early documentation on the subcultures that have punched the mainstream in the jaw so many times that they''ve tapped out and tried to cash in on them instead." - ESPN

SynopsisThe definitive monograph of Glen E. Friedman, a pioneer of revolutionary skateboarding, punk, and hip hop photography, including never-before-published work collected over thirty-five years. Think of an iconic image of Run DMC, Black Flag, Beastie Boys, Minor Threat, Public Enemy, Bad Brains, Ice-T, or skateboarders Tony Alva, Jay Adams, and many others, and it's certain that image was created by Glen E. Friedman. Twenty years after independently publishing--and selling via word-of-mouth--the cult title Fuck You Heroes, the artist has created Glen E. Friedman: My Rules. This book captures the early days of three powerhouse countercultures--skateboarding, punk, and hip hop--and the people who became the faces of those influential movements., The definitive monograph of Glen E. Friedman, a pioneer of skate, punk, and hip-hop photography, including much never-before-published work. Glen E. Friedman is best known for his work capturing and promoting rebellion in his portraits of artists such as Fugazi, Black Flag, Ice-T, Dead Kennedys, Minor Threat, The Misfits, Bad Brains, Beastie Boys, Run-D.M.C., and Public Enemy, as well as classic skateboarding originators such as Tony Alva, Jay Adams, Alan "Ollie" Gelfand, Duane Peters, and Stacy Peralta, and a very young Tony Hawk. Designed in association with celebrated street and graphic artist Shepard Fairey, this monograph captures the most important and influential underground heroes of skateboarding, punk, and hip-hop cultures. My Rules is an unprecedented window into the three most significant countercultures of the last quarter of the twentieth century, and Friedman's photographs define those important movements that he helped shape. A remarkable chronicle and a primer about the origins of radical street cultures, My Rules is also a statement of artistic inspiration for those influenced by these countercultures.

    My highest rating. Glen E Friedman, the large format, excellent repro, fabulous sidebar essays, plus GEF history. The NY peace movement was an eye opener. Best photo book I've bought in a while.
