Home Actor David Bowie HD Photos and Wallpapers March 2024 David Bowie Instagram - JEFF KOONS’ NOD TO BOWIE WITH FIRST ART ON THE MOON “Make some new computer thing, That puts me on the moon...” After a brief delay due to technical issues, the Moon Phases artwork by Jeff Koons was successfully launched on a rocket to the moon from Cape Canaveral at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center on Thursday. Bowie fans may be familiar with the work of Jeff Koons, perhaps via David’s interview with him in the Spring 1998 issue of Modern Painters or even because of the April Fool’s day launch party in 1998 of William Boyd’s book Nat Tate: an American Artist 1928-1960, at Jeff Koons’ studio. A hoax of Boyd’s that David presented to the world with the collusion of Koons. Anyway, as we said, a rocket made by Elon Musk’s SpaceX company carrying 125 miniature, stainless steel sculptures by Koons launched on Thursday and is expected to land with the Intuitive Machines Nova-C Lunar Lander and be permanently placed near the moon’s south pole on 23rd February. The Moon Phases artwork (which will be the first authorized art permanently placed on the moon), consists of 125 one-inch sculptures that each correspond to distinct phases and vantage points of the moon. On Earth, 15.5-inch replicas of each mini sculpture will remain. Each sculpture is named after “people who have made great accomplishments in human history,” as Jeff Koons explained in the promotional video for Moon Phases posted nine months ago: “Each Moon Phase will have the name of an individual throughout history that’s made a tremendous contribution. One of the persons could be Leonardo da Vinci. Another one could be David Bowie. People who have made significant changes and who have given us a glimpse into how we can transcend....Moon Phases really deals with global aspiration for humankind, beyond the Earth into the universe.” Read more about the project and watch the full video here: https://www.pacegallery.com/journal/jeff-koons-moon-phases/. (Linktree in bio) Here‘s to a safe journey for Moon Phases, the second time SpaceX have flung Bowie into space. (See our February 2018 post: BOWIE SONGS USED FOR HISTORIC SPACE FLIGHT) (Continued)

David Bowie Instagram – V&A BOWIE ADVERT IN MOJO

“Yeah! I ran to the street looking for information…”

The first picture here is one of Mick Rock’s backstage photos of Bowie in Scotland in May 1973, possibly the Music Hall in Aberdeen on the 16th…somebody will know.

The second image is the full-page V&A advert running in the current edition of MOJO magazine (April). The ad was published to build excitement for the Bowie Archive which will open at V&A East Storehouse in 2025. 

It’s of an anabas poster issued in 1974 with a photograph taken possibly at the same 1973 Aberdeen show. If memory serves, this shot, along with others, was taken for a local newspaper report. 

The anabas company cornered the market with this type of thing, licensing an image which would be repeated across several pieces of merchandise, including a badge, pendant, keyring and poster. See the third image for the pendant utilising the same shot.

The final image is the full-length version of the first shot because it would be rude not to include it.
