The book edited by Barney Hoskyns and Michael Bracewell, compiles photographs taken during Bowie’s Ziggy era, from 1972 to 1973.
Mick Rock, Bowie’s official photographer at the time, decided to publish the book back in 2015 but it took him 5 years to compile the intimate photos of the rock legend, from backstage to rehearsal and studio portraits as well as intimate moments. Taschen quotes that the publication charts “the musical, theatrical, and sexual revolution of the groundbreaking record,” and serves as a “celebration of a fearless, transformative, and eternally inspiring artist”.
