Target Video: Underground Forces Vol. 3

“Raw Punk Rock”

In 1977, artist Joe Rees founded Target Video, a guerrilla documentation project capturing underground music and art. Rees, along with Jill Hoffman, Jackie Sharp, and others, filmed bands in studios, clubs, parties and on the streets, driven by a shared vision and deep love for the underground. The result was a massive archive that preserved a raw, unpolished moment in cultural history. Embracing the scene in all its electric immediacy, Target documented an explosive era in music and art. It cemented a place in history for bands like the Screamers, the Avengers, and the Dils while capturing iconic early performances by Talking Heads, Iggy Pop, the Cramps and many others.
