he best of them were chosen for this book and topped off with informative texts. The musician and his photographer - a different Bowie biography "Bowie was not like other rock'n'rollers, he had that certain something, and I knew, I wanted to turn that into pictures." - This is how Sukita remembers meeting the exceptional musician for the first time in 1972.
Sukita's work mirrors the artist's eventful life as well as eventful times. Through his camera he looks at manipulative strategies of self-presentation, of creating fictional characters, that commenced in the '70's art and music and were brought to perfection by David Bowie.
A kaleidoscope of timeless portraits, far from the usual rock star snapshots! Text in English and German.
