David Bowie's influence in music’s history is huge, but it’s not his only contribution to the arts. Besides being a painter and a writer, the legend was always known for his unique style. According to his biographer, David Buckley, Bowie “penetrated and changed more lives than any comparable figure”. Indeed, almost every member of the younger generation of artists that we see today on stage has been inspired, in one way or another, by this singer. And let’s not forget about his social influence: Bowie started talking about forbidden themes like sexual freedom and drugs many years ago, opening minds all over the world.
