Abstract
This article analyzes how David Bowie borrowed a number of codes and art forms from Japanese culture and incorporated them into his own research. It explores the complex interplay of exchange and circulation between elite and pop culture, and the integration of traditional and avant-garde practices into an approach that is both commercial and artistically ambitious, and the impact this stylistic entanglement has on concepts such as the mainstream or the underground.
