40 pages Edited by Xandre Rodríguez and Christian Omodeo Photographs by Miguel Trillo Designed by Paolo Proserpio 30 x 29.8 cm Language: English Paperback Publisher: Le Grand Jeu, together with ZarbiBooks Limited edition of 150 hand-numbered copies for Paris Photo 2025 Standard unnumbered edition 2025
A key figure of Spain’s movida madrileña, Miguel Trillo has spent his life documenting youth cultures and urban aesthetics — from late-Franco punks to the first generation of Spanish rappers and today's youngsters. His photographs, positioned between art, reportage, and visual sociology, reveal how style and self-expression take shape in the streets.
At the core of his work stands Rockocó, a legendary series of self-published fanzines from the 1980s, now regarded as an icon of the movida. Through sharp, empathetic portraits, Trillo captured the diversity, freedom, and creative energy of a generation inventing itself anew.
This new and previously unpublished issue #8, Especial Hip-Hop Madrid 1986–1991, completes the original series. The photographs were taken for a fanzine that was never realized — until now. They portray the pioneers of Spanish hip-hop in Madrid: b-boys, fly girls DJs, graffiti writers, and MCs, seen through Trillo’s unmistakable eye for authenticity and detail.
Printed in its original photocopy format and released as a limited edition on occasion of Paris Photo 2025, ROCKOCÓ Número Ocho revives the raw energy of a movement in the making — a missing chapter in the visual history of European hip-hop.
