I'm Afraid Of Americans — David Bowie
Coming soonArchive note
Recovered promotional poster for an unrealized music video or television special pairing David Bowie with an unnamed collaborator in an urban dystopian setting. The composition echoes late-1990s MTV aesthetics and alternative rock iconography, layering Bowie's defiant stare against graffitied concrete and a figure making a peace gesture. Archive logos suggest broadcast distribution across MTV UK, NME TV, and Virgin Video — a multi-platform push that never materialized. Collectors of Bowie ephemera, alternate-history music media, and 90s counterculture imagery.
