Iconic images of David Bowie from three British photographers will be showcased at the ‘David Bowie: Fame, Fashion, Photography’ exhibition, to be held from 7 June to 19 June at The Hub on London’s Heddon Street.

The free-entry exhibition is an initiative curated by the V&A team and supported by Regent Street, and honours the extraordinary career of the late music icon, who died of liver cancer in January.

As well as showcasing exceptional images captured on stage, in the studio and on tour, the exhibition aims to raise money for Cancer Research UK through a silent online auction of framed images signed by the photographers.

For the first time ever in a gallery setting, the Regent Street app, will host the world’s first immersive in-app gallery experience. With the app, visitors will be able to see the entire collection of photographs and hear audios by each of the artists describing the details behind the portraits.
