Burger A-Go-Go

Photographed on September 5, 2015, during the Burger A-Go-Go festival at The Observatory in Santa Ana, this stage-level capture documents Kathleen Hanna performing with The Julie Ruin. Frame parameters isolate Hanna in her polka dot dress and beehive hairstyle.

As a foundational figure in the 1990s Riot Grrrl movement through her work in Bikini Kill and Le Tigre, Hanna’s performance history represents a major document in independent music and feminist culture. This print is also archived on display at the Punk Rock Museum in Las Vegas.
