“David Bowie, The Wave (B&W)” by Markus Klinko, 2002
Arty-Fact: "GQ magazine called me and said, 'We decided that David will be our 'Man of the Year.' Can you do another shoot?' So, I call David and he said, 'There's no way, I have no time.' I had an idea. I told (GQ) that there were so many unused images from this photo shoot, and that I could (make) a very elaborate photo montage where I would involve wild animals. They said, 'We love it, but is Bowie gonna be OK?' So, I call David back and he says, 'Absolutely. Go for it.' “I just thought that the wolf represented David the most - not too bombastic, like tigers and leopards.” ~ Markus Klinko
