Created in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the release of David Bowie's self-titled album, originally released on July 11th 1969 - this limited edition 'Space' pressing features a gatefold cover and vibrant blue and yellow patterned vinyl, each piece will be slightly different due to hand-made nature of the vinyl - making each disc a one-off piece of art.
Front cover by Vernon Dewhurst based on 'CTA 25 Neg' by Victor Vasarely 'The Depth of the Circle' back cover by George Underwood
Limited edition one-off pressing of 3000
The front cover of this special edition mirrors the original 1969 UK Philips release of the record. It features the British photographer Vernon Dewhurst’s famous portrait of David Bowie, merging into a colourful optical art background of blue dots inspired by the work of Victor Vasarely.
The rear cover is decorated with a surrealist image from another of Bowie’s regular collaborators, the illustrator George Underwood, titled 'The Depth of a Circle’.
In reference to the album’s famous opening track, 'Space Oddity’, the new 12" record comes with a vibrant blue and yellow patterned vinyl. This unique finish is created by hand, making each disc a one-off piece of art.
3000 copies of this limited edition release will be produced worldwide in collaboration with British designer Paul Smith.
Paul Smith & David Bowie, Space Oddity Limited Edition Disc The new release is the latest chapter in an on-going partnership between Paul Smith and David Bowie, which has continued after the artist’s sad passing in 2016.
