His fearless engagement with self-expression and performance has defined contemporary culture and resonates strongly with the values of authenticity, experimentation and freedom that we celebrate across the collections at V&amp;A East Storehouse. This archive offers an extraordinary lens through which to examine broader questions of creativity, cultural change, and the social and historical moments during which Bowie lived and worked. In the Centre, we want you to get closer to Bowie, and his creative process than ever before. For Bowie fans and those coming to him for the first time, we hope the Centre can inspire the next generation of creatives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For more information on the David Bowie Centre and to sign-up for updates, please visit:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/outside-org.us4.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=08eb03354b552964d6342c6d7&amp;id=9acdbb6fb4&amp;e=32188b40e0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>vam.ac.uk\/exhibitions\/david-bowie-centre<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uncut.co.uk\/news\/the-va-announces-new-details-on-the-david-bowie-centre-150357\/\">The V&amp;A announces new details on the David Bowie Centre<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uncut.co.uk\/\">UNCUT<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The David Bowie Centre opens at the V&amp;A East Storehouse on September 13, 2025.
