The Kyoto that David Bowie loved - A photo story of the past and present captured by Masayoshi Sukita

In 1972, photographer Masayoshi Sukita met David Bowie in London while photographing the legendary rock group T-REX, and accompanied him on his world tour the following year.
Since then, their relationship lasted for about 40 years until Bowie's death. Bowie was a great Japanophile and visited Kyoto several times.
One day in 1980, Sukita had the opportunity to spend some private time with Bowie in Kyoto, a time that remains vividly in Sukita's mind.
After Bowie passed away, Sukita, now 82 years old, began photographing Kyoto, the city Bowie loved, in order to process his past and re-etch it in his heart.

Now the photobook is,
The photo exhibition "TIME - BOWIE x KYOTO x SUKITA" was held at the Eki Kyoto Museum in Kyoto in April 2021, and featured photographs of David Bowie taken in Kyoto in 1980, as well as works capturing the "present" of Kyoto, a city that Bowie loved, and portraits of David Bowie that Sukita has continued to take over the past 40 years.The book contains 174 photographs, including photographs that could not be exhibited, treasured shots that could not be exhibited, stories related to the classic album "Heroes," a memoir by Naoki Tachikawa, the producer of the photo exhibition, and photographs that Sukita himself took while traveling around places associated with Bowie.
