Night owls can look forward to a midnight screening of Julian Schnabel’s film Basquiat (1996)—in which Bowie starred as Andy Warhol—with free popcorn and bacon sandwiches, while early birds will be practising meditation, reiki and yoga in the galleries from 7am. In what must be a first for an auction house, there will be a “fuzzy felt area” for children to design Memphis furniture miniatures at lunchtime on Sunday. And FOMO-sufferers who weren’t able to secure tickets to the Bowie fest can rest assured: Sotheby’s will be streaming talks live through its Facebook page throughout the weekend.
