A pop-up shop-cum-exhibition in New York is celebrating David Bowie on his upcoming 75th birth anniversary. 
 
Located in the Manhattan neighbourhood of Soho where the British singer lived, the multimedia experience, entitled 'Bowie 75,'&nbsp;will remain open free of charge through January. The date of Bowie`s birthday, Jan. 8, will be marked. 
 
"This is meant to be a celebration of David, for David and for his fans," Lawrence Peryer, the producer of 'Bowie 75,'&nbsp;said in an interview.

The exhibit of all things Bowie, who died in 2016, includes gift-shop displays of Bowie-emblazoned and themed T-shirts, sweatshirts, mugs, posters, books and other paraphernalia. 
 
Also of note are a series of multimedia displays that aim to bring the icon back to life. Bowie can be heard opining on topics such as the public interpretation of artwork in telephone messages you can listen to in a replica of a K2 British phonebox seen on the album cover of 'Ziggy Stardust.' 
Another immersive experience allows visitors to listen to Bowie in&nbsp;a 360-surround sound space.

Fans can also write digital messages at a station called 'Ground Control to Major Tom,'&nbsp;an allusion to the lyrics of the Bowie classic, 'Space Oddity.' 
''David Bowie has saved my life and many people`s lives. He's my favourite person, favourite artist, so he`s made me love life," said New York singer/songwriter, Alessandra Mendez. "This is just great." 
 
An additional 'Bowie 75'&nbsp;pop-up shop-and-exhibit is also available in Bowie's other major haunt of London.

New York exhibition celebrates David Bowie's 75th birth anniversary

Friends and musicians who played with David Bowie are to gather in London for a concert in January marking what would have been his 70th birthday, organizers announced on Monday.

Called &quot;Celebrating David Bowie,&quot; the concert is organised by Gary Oldman, a British actor and close Bowie friend, and will take place in Bowie`s Brixton, London birthplace on Jan. 8, according to the late singer&#39;s website.

The show will come almost a year after Bowie&#39;s death from cancer on January 10. Proceeds will go to the Children &amp; the Arts charity.

Organisers said the concert will feature some 30 musicians who played on Bowie&#39;s various albums and world tours over the years. They will play &quot;Bowie music, Bowie style.&quot;

&quot;This is the first and last time this inner circle will do anything like this and these shows are likely to be the last time that they perform his music together; sadly, this may be the closest anyone will come to a David Bowie live experience ever again,&quot; the announcement said.

Similar concerts in other world cities that &quot;have a strong connection&quot; with Bowie are also planned, but the website gave no details.&nbsp;
