David Bowie Art Collection "Bowie/Collector" Sotheby's, by Coach on Jul 14, 2016 9:51:57 GMT 1,
Heard on the radio today that the collection included Hirst, Basquiat, Stanley Spencer, Patrick Caulfield and many others.
The Basquiat was said to be worth £3.5m.
They played a clip of Bowie being interviewed in which he said art was the only thing he bought, and that he did so obsessively.
Hmm, that sounds familiar!

His "stable nourishment" I'm excited just to get the opportunity to see what artworks such a distinguished, stylish and creative genius with very deep pockets and impeccable taste chose to surround himself with.
