“David always enjoyed sharing the works in the collection,” Sotheby’s noted in a statement quoting the Bowie estate. “Loaning to museums and actively supporting the art and artists that were part of his world. While the family have kept certain pieces of particular significance, now was the time for others to share David’s love for these remarkable works and let them live on.”
