Buck Henry (1930-2020), the talented actor, screenwriter and director, would have celebrated his 95th birthday today. IN 1975, Duffy met Buck on the set of ’The Man Who Fell to Earth’ starring David Bowie. Buck played the role of an attorney, and Duffy took this portrait for the Sunday Times. His great sense of humour is evident in the t-shirt he’s wearing. His screenwriting credits include The Graduate and Catch-22 22 and he hosted Saturday Night Live. He was nominated for an Academy Award twice.⁠ ⁠ #brianduffy #duffy #duffyarchive #buckhenry #themanwhofelltoearth #davidbowie #newmexico #1975 #portraitphotography #saturdaynightlive #actor #writer #filmdirector #tvdirector #thegraduate #catch22 #sundaytimes #rip #cultmovie #dude @buckhenry @SundayTimesMagazine

The sale – part of Bonhams’ Mona Lisa of Pop: The Duffy Archive auction in London – confirms Duffy’s lasting influence on both photography and pop culture.⁠ ⁠ Chris Duffy commented, "Duffy would be honoured to know that 15 years after his passing, the 'Mona Lisa of Pop' has achieved a world record and cemented its position as a cultural icon." ⁠ ⁠ This landmark result celebrates Duffy’s legacy and highlights the growing recognition of album cover photography as a fine art. The Archive remains committed to preserving and sharing his groundbreaking work with new generations.⁠ ⁠ A big thank you goes to Claire Tole-Moir and the Bonhams team for their passion and professionalism for the Bowie exhibition and sale.⁠ ⁠ #BrianDuffy #DuffyArchive #DavidBowie #Bowie #AladdinSane #AlbumCoverArt #MonaLisaofPop #Bonhams #auction #recordbreaking #vinyl #vinylrecord #icon #music #1973 #fromthearchive @bonhamspopularculture @claire.tole.moir⁠ ⁠ ⁠

Birthday wishes go out to Mike Garson, who is celebrating his 80th birthday! Mike has had an extraordinary career and was David Bowie’s longest and most frequent piano and keyboard player, accompanying David on his first and last US concert.

Today marks the 46th anniversary of the release of David Bowie's Lodger album. This vintage Polaroid of the album is signed by Duffy. Duffy was perched up in the studio rafters to take the shot, and Bowie was below, propped up on a plinth to hold his body. The makeup artist, Anthony Clavet, attached wires to his face, which Coco gently pulled to create a contorted look and make it appear like he was falling. More images from this shoot can be found in the Bowie portfolio on our website, including the set build, Duffy in the rafters and the Kodachrome image used for the album re-release in 2017.⁠ ⁠ #BrianDuffy #Duffy #DuffyArchive #DavidBowie #Bowie #DerekBoshier #Lodger #kodachrome##Polaroid #Kodak #VintagePhotograph #albumcover #vinyl #RCA #fallingman #albumcoverart #albumcoverphotoshoot #singer #Britishphotographer #portraitphotographer #albumanniversary #anniversary #iconic #britishartists #1970s #1979 #studioshoot #fromthearchive @DavdiBowie @derekboshier⁠ ⁠
