Hopped-Up is about the European Culture of Hot Rodding.
It's in ambitious photographs and sophisticated interviews that David Biene shows all the facets of this culture and introduces the protagonists. He comes along with them to their garages and to races and accompanies them after the races while they celebrate their victory.
Already after looking at the first few photos the viewer can't be sure anymore if the photos date from today or from the 30ties-50ties. But that's when the interviews make clear what the photos already suggest: it's not about nostalgicly glorifying long gone times but it's about a new interpretation of it. It's about real people, about characters.
It's about true enthusiasm and passion. It's about sweat and fun. And it's about friendship and individuality.
HOPPED-UP is the book for all friends of analog photography, analog technology and analog music- a born-and-bred piece of rock..n..roll!
The ambitious photography combined with the text and interviews topped off by the specials are one cause for the broadness of the target audience of this book. It adresses all people around the world who are into motorsports, retrodesign and retro fashion same as people who are into photography, design and individuality.
Hopped-Up is drawn up to be successfully released worldwide by concentrating in content on the European scene, introducing characters from different European countries and by using only English language.
