Lastly it will be transferred to Hong Kong and will remain there from October 12-15. “David’s art collection was fueled by personal interest and compiled out of passion,” said a spokesperson for Bowie’s estate. “He always sought and encouraged loans from the collection and enjoyed sharing the works in his custody. Though his family are keeping certain pieces of particular significance, it is now time to give others the opportunity to appreciate – and acquire – the art and objects he so admired.” The items are set to be auctioned off over a two-day period on November 10 and 11 at Sotheby’s in London after it’s there for a 10 day display.
