In the summer of 1973, a 19-year-old, Kevin Cummins, photographed David Bowie as Ziggy Stardust. Thus began a 40-year relationship of the celebrated photographer and the iconic singer. In David Bowie: Mixing Memory & Desire, world-renowned rock photographer, Kevin Cummins, selected some of his very best images, some never before seen, featuring the rock legend from early gigs to sold-out concerts.
