Rare Db Shot At Yesterday Exhibition In Alkmaar

I keep a photograph, It burns my wall with time…

BowieNetter 051060 has been in touch with details of a Dutch photographic exhibition that has been running for the past few months, but is now extended until September 8th.

Situated in the city of Alkmaar, Yesterday celebrates the work of the late Dutch pop photographer, Nico van der Stam (1925-2000).

There are approximately 200 of van der Stam’s photos on display, including the shot above of David Bowie at the piano taken at a TV show in 1970 when David visited The Netherlands. The shot is available at the exhibition as a postcard and it’s included with a page of text in the exhibition catalogue which is actually a 360-page book.

You may remember we posted a mono shot from the same session back in May, (05.09.2008 NEWS: THE BOWIE COLLECTORS – VISITOR) when we didn’t even have the photographer details.

While we’re still not completely clear about when and where the pictures were taken, Dutch BowieNetter, Bert Slappendel, reckons it could very well be from a Dutch TV show called Dooby Doo, though I have to admit I can’t find a trace of such a show online.

You can read more about the exhibition here and go here for booking details.
