NEW YORK, N.Y., May 5, 2011 /New York Netwire/ — Fans of legendary musician David Bowie can now own a rare artwork by the iconoclast via 20×200.com. In support of Housing Works Thrift Shop’s “Design on a Dime” fundraising event, the pioneering art e-commerce site 20×200 announced it is releasing a special benefit print by Bowie. Bowie’s art print, IMAN No. 1, will be unveiled at Design on a Dime, and will make its online debut on 20×200 on Thursday, May 12, 2011. Individuals who want first dibs at purchasing one of only 10 available prints – all signed and numbered by Bowie – should sign up for 20×200’s newsletter.

David Bowie’s 20×200-exclusive edition is an archival print from a lithograph of his wife (and Design on a Dime co-chair), fashion icon Iman. Bowie is allowing the original to be reproduced only once to benefit Housing Works Design on a Dime, and will be featured for auction at the event (New York, May 5 – 7). The celebrity benefit print will be on display in the “dream boudoir” room vignette designed by Iman and style expert Robert Verdi for IMAN Home.

Bowie’s striking art print will then be sold on 20×200 for $800. All proceeds from the sale of the benefit editions at Design on a Dime and on 20×200 will fund Housing Works’ “Get A Room,” a program that provides housing for homeless and low-income New Yorkers living with and affected by HIV/AIDS.

The special Bowie print is the latest of two celebrity benefit editions being released for this cause. Another 20×200 benefit edition-Eccentric Glamour by Simon Doonan, Barneys New York Creative Ambassador-at-Large-debuts today on 20×200.
