David Bowie By Denis o'Regan

"... It’s as elegant and considered as Bowie himself, a mixture of gallery-level quality and personal scrapbook charm." — Louder Than War "...one of the most stunning and possibly heaviest books in the Bowie canon." — God Is In The TV "His images are not just records, they are living archives, fragments of history with a capital H...He doesn’t just show; he frames, builds, lights without trickery, but with a sense of rhythm that feels almost musical." — Eye of Photography "The result is a rare, career-spanning portrait of the chameleonic rock star, featuring never-before-seen images and candid recollections from a man who knew Bowie as both icon and friend. It’s also a record of proximity: of what it means to move through life alongside an artist who refused to repeat himself." — Interview magazine "A book of images by David Bowie’s official tour photographer is every bit as mesmerising as you’d imagine." —Loupe Magazine Official photographer to music legend David Bowie, Denis O Regan presents a personal edit from his unrivalled collection of photographs.
