David Bowie is

Did David Bowie attend the recent exhibition about David Bowie? It was in London at the Victoria & Albert Museum. Did he play any concerts in London during the exhibit (Mar 23–Aug 11, 2013)?
Seems like no (definitely no concerts).
However, I was at this exhibition a week ago in São Paolo and members of Guns n' Roses were there at the same time. It was odd.

David Bowie hasn't played live for around a decade. I would be surprised if he hadn't had a private showing at the V&A, but he did not participate in the opening. Iirc, Tilda Swinton showed up to read out a tribute to him, but he definitely wasn't present.

I know friends who worked on putting together the exhibition and Bowie/Bowies people were definitely involved in curating it.

The exhibit comes to Berlin in May and there will be displays about his time there exclusive to this leg of it.
