The results have been gathered onto a limited release print in anticipation of the impending 'David Bowie is (opens in new tab)' retrospective at the V&A, opening on 23 March.
‘The changing faces of Bowie (opens in new tab)’ poster features contributions from the likes of Pentagram (opens in new tab), Trevor Jackson (opens in new tab), Anthony Burrill (opens in new tab), Stockholm Design Lab (opens in new tab) and Wallpaper*, the fonts as stylistically eclectic as the musician they pay tribute to.
