Bologna
From 1976 to 1978 Iggy Pop and David Bowie lived in the then divided by the wall Berlin at 155 Hauptstrasse, in a neighborhood of Turkish immigrants. Those two years in the western enclave of the GDR gave birth to some of the most important and innovative records in the history of pop music. In the decadent Berlin, which still winked at the ideological grandeur of the Weimer Republic, inspired by writers like Christopher Isherwood, Bowie, Iggy Pop and the German photographer Esther Friedman move through the streets and among the people of the former Third Reich capital almost like they were perfect strangers. The sentimental relationship that Esther and Iggy began in 1977, and which lasted for 7 years, will allow the German photographer to intimately portray James Newell Osterberg, aka Iggy Pop, as never happened before and never will happen after despite the fact the Detroit performer has been immortalised by the most important photographers in the world.
