The late Davie Bowie is no stranger to the NFT market.
In 2022, the Bowie Estate issued Bowie on the Blockchain in partnership with OpenSea and We Love the Arts, the Web3 venture of artist manager Andrew D. Keller of We Few Group, and film producer Joaquin Acrich.
The project aims to donate 100% of profits to CARE, for which Iman, Bowie's wife, is its first-ever Global Advocate.
The collection features 15 NFTs. The lowest-priced piece called “ The Transcended by Defaced” is available for $7.27. Meanwhile, the most expensive one “Life on Mars by Pussy Riot” is sold for $141.26.
