Iggy Pop's Punk Series Premieres on Sky Arte

One year after its US debut, the four-part series 'PUNK', produced by Iggy Pop and fashion designer John Varvatos, arrives on Sky Arte in its Italian premiere. Each episode focuses on a different era of punk, from 1960s proto-punk to the present day. The series explores the movement's historical context, fashion, art, and its impact on subsequent generations. Featured musicians include John Lydon (Sex Pistols), Wayne Kramer (MC5), Jello Biafra (Dead Kennedys), Marky Ramone (Ramones), Debbie Harry and Chris Stein (Blondie), Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters), Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers), and Duff McKagan (Guns N' Roses). The first episode covers Detroit's proto-punk scene, which inspired New York musicians like the New York Dolls and Ramones, sparking a sonic revolution. Episodes air from March 4. Sky Arte's site is powered by Artribune, which curates its content and digital interface.
