Overview

When January 10 hits in 2019, it'll mark three years since David Bowie shuffled off this mortal coil. In celebration of his life and music, Lyons Gallery — a brand new addition to Paddington's art world — will host an evening dedicated to the singer-songwriter.

From 6pm till late, the gallery will transform into a time machine, filled with images of Bowie, memorabilia and film screenings. Look out for works by Brian Duffy, the photographer behind Aladdin Sane; Masayoshi Sukita, who collaborated with Bowie for four decades; Helmut Newtown, who famously shot Bowie in Monte Carlo in 1983; and Terry O'Neill, who took more than 180 photos of Bowie over 30 years. A handpicked selection of limited-edition photos will be on sale.

Founded by media personality and former Geelong Mayor Darryn Lyons in November last year, Lyons Gallery specialises in iconic images of celebrities, rock stars and royals — from Princess Diana and Queen Elizabeth II to Marilyn Monroe and Brigitte Bardot.

Let's Dance: The Life of David Bowie is free to attend, although RSVPs are required by emailing the gallery on [email protected].
