New photobook, Ibiza ‘89, captures the spirit of nightlife in the White Isle’s golden age
The book features a foreword by Terry Farley
A new book featuring photos of '80s Ibiza has been published.
Titled Ibiza ‘89, the new book captures the spirit of nightlife in the White Isle’s golden age, after Time Out's former nightlife editor, Dave Swindells, spent a week on the island.
Featuring images shot at Ku, Amnesia, Pacha, and Cafe del Mar, the photobook features over 100 photos from Ibiza during its time of peak hedonism, with some famous faces enjoying the clubs, including Culture Club frontman, Boy George.
Ibiza '89 also features a foreword from Terry Farley, an introduction from Swindells, and a reprised 1989 feature for 20/20 Magazine from Alix Sharkey.
The book, which is limited to 1,000 copies, is currently sold out at IDEA and Dover Street Market, but you can keep an eye out for a reprint on their respective online stores.
In the meantime, you can check out some of the images from the book here.
Read DJ Mag's feature with the man behind Ibiza Past, an instagram account dedicated to sharing images captured on the White Isle across the decades.
In October, a 70-minute documentary titled Born Balearic: Jon Sa Trinxa and The Spirit of Ibiza was released online as part of Doc'n Roll's Film Festival.
