A timeless visual tribute to one of music’s most transformative icons, David Bowie: Black Book offers an intimate look into the early chapters of Bowie’s extraordinary life and evolution. With over 100 photographs, this volume captures the essence of an artist in constant reinvention fluctuating between personas, genres, and visual identities with magnetic precision.
Written by Barry Miles and designed by Pearce Marchbank, this cult favorite merges rich visuals with concise, compelling commentary, tracing Bowie’s ascent from underground oddity to international star. Each image functions like a still from a larger performance one that shaped pop culture, fashion, and sound for decades to come.
Originally published in the UK, this English-language edition is a must-have for collectors, music historians, and anyone drawn to the mythos of Ziggy, Aladdin, and the Thin White Duke. A compact icon of glam and reinvention.
Intermission exists in the space between documentation and devotion an ongoing archive of cultural fragments that refuse to vanish. Each title within our portfolio is selected not for trend, but for tension: between what was meant to disappear and what insists on remaining.
We work with objects that speak quietly but persistently publications, recordings, and editions that define the undercurrents of art, sound, and design. Together they form a living record of marginal brilliance, a collection that privileges significance over scale.

Every Intermission title is handled as an artifact. We believe that preservation is an act of reverence one that begins the moment you open a cover or unspool a tape.
To experience a piece, do so slowly. Allow the air to touch the paper, let light fall softly over each page. Avoid excess pressure; handle edges rather than surfaces. Each mark, fold, or patina is part of its passage through time evidence of care rather than decay.
We encourage collectors to engage not only with the content, but with the gesture of preservation itself: a quiet commitment to memory.
