This signed, limited edition, exhibition-grade print captures David Bowie at a music video shoot for Adrian Belew in 1990. Belew was Bowie’s guitarist for the acclaimed Lodger album and is widely loved for his long run as a King Crimson member.
“This was on the set of a video for Adrian Below that Julien Temple was making in a disused warenhouse in Edinburgh, and they got me along to shoot the stills. David was helping his guitarist out immensly by featuring in the video. David was really sweet, he said, ’The light’s lovely over here’, so we rattled off a roll of blank-and-white film on the Hasselblad and I got these shots of him in the smoky corner, surrounded by black. It was the first time I’d met David and he was charming. Most of the great musicians are.” Lawrence Watson
