About David Bowie

David Bowie (1947–2016) constantly reinvented his music and image, from Ziggy Stardust to the Thin White Duke. Bowie’s striking stage looks made him one of the most photographed musicians of all time. Many concert posters listed several bands, capturing who shared the stage on a given night. It was designed to promote a 1974 concert. In the 1970s, rock moved into arenas and its posters became bigger, bolder and more graphic. Concert posters are often the only surviving record of a particular line-up on a particular night.
