" It's an amazing gift, " added Kate Bailey, a senior curator, who previously worked on The Museum 's groundbreaking 2013 David Bowie Is. . Exhibition .
" It traces The whole of Bowie's career. There are priceless items from his very early days in The in The '60s, right through to [2013 album] The Next Day and beyond.
" I found it fascinating - The Personal insights, The handwritten lyrics, The dialogue with other creative practitioners in terms of how a song is written or how a song is recorded or how a video is treated.
" All of these things are incredibly rich and powerful. "
Other highlights include Bowie's Ziggy Stardust costumes, designed by Freddie Burretti in 1972, and The Union Jack coat designed by Bowie and Alexander Mcqueen for The 1997 Earthling album cover.
The Collection also features Brian Eno 's EMS synthesizer, used On Bowie 's 1977 albums Low and Heroes; and examples of his " cut-up" technique for lyric writing, which involved literally chopping up existing texts to generate new meanings from The rearranged pieces.
Ms Bailey said The archive had been preserved with " fantastic care" and " meticulous" attention to detail.
" These objects, these documents, had importance to him and you get The Sense That , because he was always Moving On creatively, it was helpful to park and collect and store [everything] in order to move on to The Next character or project. "
The acquisition by The V& A, and The Creation of The Bowie centre, was made possible by The David Bowie Estate and a £10m donation from The Blavatnik Family Foundation and Warner Music Group .
In a press release, a spokesperson for Bowie's estate said: " With David's life's work becoming part of The UK's national collections, he takes his rightful place amongst many other cultural icons and artistic geniuses.
" The David Bowie Centre for The Study of Performance - and The behind The Scenes access That V& A East Storehouse offers- will mean David's work can be shared with The Public in ways That haven't been possible before. "
Producer and guitarist Nile Rodgers , who collaborated with Bowie on The 1983 album Let's Dance, added: " I believe everyone will agree with me when I say That . . If Only one artist could be in The V& A it should be David Bowie .
" He didn't just make art, he was art! "
