‘The Kate Inside’
photos by Guido Harari

new photo book offers rare glimpse into Kate Bush's '80s/'90s era

Photographer Guido Harari worked with Kate Bush during her most creatively fertile years, from 1982 to 1993 (so from The Dreaming through The Red Shoes). A book of his photos from that time period are being compiled into a new book, The Kate Inside:

Guido’s collaboration with Kate spans from 1982 to 1993 when he shot her official press photos for landmark albums like Hounds Of Love, The Sensual World and The Red Shoes, including a completely never-before-seen reportage on the set of Kate’s film The Line, The Cross & The Curve.

The Kate Inside is a limited edition of just 3000 copies worldwide. All are numbered and hand-signed by Guido and co-signed by Lindsay Kemp who also wrote a very sweet foreword. Accompanied by his own commentary, The Kate Inside is packed with more than 300 hundred photographs, including all of Guido’s classic images of Kate plus a wealth of vastly unseen photographs and other materials (test Polaroids, notes by Kate, various ephemera, etc.) taken from his personal archives that are showcased here for the first time.

The Kate Inside was made possible in part from a crowd-funding campaign. The book will be available as a Regular Edition and a Deluxe Edition. The Deluxe Edition will be limited to the first 350 copies and will include a unique 10×11” signed fine art pigment print and a set of 8 replica polaroids (3x5in).

Pre-orders are available now. You can check out a few photos from the book in the gallery above and watch two videos about the making of The Kate Inside, below.
