David Bowie Is now available in paperback. Originally published to accompany the ground-breaking exhibition at the V&A, this is a revised edition of the only book to be granted access to Bowie’s personal archive of performance costume, ephemera and original artwork.
The book traces Bowie’s career from its beginnings in London, through the breakthroughs of Space Oddity and Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars, and on to his impact on the larger international tradition of twentieth-century avant-garde art. It presents a completely new perspective on his creative work and collaborations.
The David Bowie Centre at V&A East will allow new generations to explore the artist’s continuing influence and inspiration, through his recently secured archive of more than 80,000 objects. This book is the perfect introduction to a unique collection.
