La primera Movida cover

In the early 1980s decade, Miguel Trillo produced the Rockocó fanzine, an underground publication that portrayed the different urban tribes of the capital and which has become a cult object. In the middle of the decade, he composed Callejones y avenidas, an unpublished publication that shows, in Trillo’s words, “calm portraits of restless nights”. All these subjects and archive of publications are brought together in La Primera Movida, a book that includes the original models and photographs, with which Miguel Trillo makes an attempt to represent a society that has evolved from the human need to a belonging feeling towards the group.

Documents the restless energy of Madrid nightlife: a circuit of impromptu parties, concerts, and clubs attended by people with maximalist style and no fucks to give. [...] The reader basks in the resulting skittish and exuberant energy. -- Sarah Moroz * Bookforum *
