Figure 16. Wesley Stacey and Rennie Ellis, untitled, ca. 1970. From Kings Cross Sydney: A Personal Look at the Cross, Melbourne: Thomas Nelson 1971, 32- 33. Nonetheless, a series of smaller though still significant photobooks were also published in the 1970s. While often driven by the photographers themselves and focusing on specific aspects and subcultures within Australian life, these photo- books continued the broad discussion initiated in the mid-1960s. For instance, Kings Cross in Sydney, the equivalent to London’s Soho, had grown in cultural importance with the influx of US Servicemen on leave from the Vietnam War and wit Kin too h the rise of the counterculture in Australia. In Wes Stacey and Rennie Ellis’s gs Cross Sydney: A Personal Look at the Cross (1971) the young photographers k the reader into the strip-club dressing rooms and hippy pads of the area, using dynamic and tight picture groupings and pungently personal text, as Strizic had done eleven years earlier, to graphically illustrate the complete surface of each double-page spread. For instance, in one double-page spread a group of twenty differently sized images are clustered centrifugally, from largest to smallest, across bot h pages (figure 16).°”
