David Bowie and the World of Art

Mary Anne interviews Jonathan Barnbrook, the designer behind several David Bowie album covers, and takes a tour of Bowie's personal art collection at Sotheby's in London.

Mary Anne interviews Jonathan Barnbrook, the designer behind several David Bowie album covers (Heathen, The Next Day, Reality, and Blackstar).

Ahead of next week's Arts Weekender on 6Music, Mary Anne also takes a tour of Bowie's personal art collection, which features over 350 works, and went on display at Sotheby's in London in November.

Tune in to this special broadcast to find out more about Bowie's relationship with art, and the connection between his music and some of his most famous record covers, from 7am.

If this show leaves you feeling inspired to get creative, get involved with our Arts Weekender on the 19th and 20th of November when we'll be asking you to submit your own pieces of artwork to the show!
