Product description
In the surreal visual language of 1970s European cinema marketing, this man who fell to earth captures the enigmatic presence of Thomas Jerome Newton. The composition features a striking profile of David Bowie with his vibrant orange hair, mirrored by his co-star against a backdrop of repetitive, cone-like acoustic dampening textures. Bold blue typography for the German title, “Der Mann Der Vom Himmel Fiel,” anchors the center, surrounded by critical praise and a clean white border at the base showcasing a printed signature from the director.
This artwork evokes the profound loneliness and alien detachment that defined Nicolas Roeg’s science fiction masterpiece. It carries a sense of mid-century futurism and the melancholic beauty of a character trying to navigate a world that is not his own. For viewers, it serves as a portal back to an era when cinema was experimental, and Bowie was transitioning from glam rock icon to a sophisticated screen presence, capturing the very essence of his ethereal 1976 persona.
Collectors working with 1970s movie posters tend to reach for pieces like this, often alongside classic rock posters.
