David Bowie’s contribution to Graphic Design
David Bowies passing this week came as a huge shock. There was no mention he was ill in the press and to be honest when I heard the news (via Twitter) I initially thought it couldn’t be true, another internet hoax, sadly it wasn’t the case.
He leaves behind vast collection of legendary music, but also a huge contribution to the arts and specifically graphic design.
“Neville Brody describes Bowie as “one of the biggest influences on my growing up in London. Being exposed to his design sensibility and music was huge.
“I was motivated and encouraged by his creativity and ability to challenge the norm and make it work joyfully. He was brazen.”
