Title
A gorgeous volume that includes never-before-published photographs of David Bowie
 
From photographer Frank Ockenfels 3, Collaboration: Frank Ockenfels 3 X David Bowie is a breathtaking array of photographs, some of which have never been published, of David Bowie made during 16 photo sessions across a period of years. The images showcase the evolution of Bowie’s iconic style, capturing his artistry, eccentricity, and deep humanity. They result from a close partnership.
 
Ockenfels’s unique access to Bowie allowed him to document the musician. The photographs in this book span the years they spent working together, from 1991 to 2006, and include candid shots, iconic portraits, sketchbooks, and contact sheets from working sessions. The images reflect the many facets of Bowie’s career.
 
Collaboration sheds light on Bowie’s changing image and reflects his influence on music, fashion, and culture. Accompanied by a foreword by veteran music journalist Joe Levy, these intimate photographs offer an unfiltered look at the man behind the persona, spotlighting the mutual respect between the photographer and his subject. The book serves as both a visual tribute to a legendary figure and a documentation of a profound artistic connection.
