The strongest cultural impact generated Bowie with his fictional character "Ziggy Stardust". Their Image influenced many punk, independent and New Romantic musician. Madonna claims that have visited her at the age of 14 years "Ziggy Stardust" concert had changed their lives. The fictional character David Bowie turned continuously. But this creativity was absolutely innovative in this increasingly antagonistic form of thematic self-expression to last in the music scene. In conjunction with the album "Station to Station" was transformed Bowie 1976 in another fictional character named "Thin White Duke", a term that refers to the line "The return of the Thin White Duke" in the title song. His wardrobe now consisted of a white shirt with black pants and vest, his hair was combed back severely, his charisma seemed distant and cold. Not only because of its self-chosen title "Duke" it was suspected that he was a fascist mentality. In a live performance then a captious gesture was observed and in interviews he gave sets of itself, which could be interpreted in this direction. This was the departure of some fans to follow. Later, Bowie distanced himself from this phase. The ambiguous expressions were probably due to its significant cocaine use. Also an investigation of those events came to the conclusion that Bowie was not a fascist. His playing with sexual identity and gender roles in the 1970s, he had developed the image of bizarre Entourage Andy Warhol from the late 1960s and early '70s, was initially a driving force in the development of Glam Rock. Bowie was so assist to make sexual ambiguity in mainstream mainstream. Brian Slade, the main character in the movie Velvet Goldmine (1998) on the glam rock era, is a nod to David Bowie and inspired him. Almost simultaneously his musical comeback with "The Next Day", the exhibition David Bowie's in London "Victoria and Albert Museum" was held, 2013. The museum was in the international exhibition for the first time private pieces from its archive. The exhibition includes around 300 exhibits, including handwritten text, photographs, films and music videos, set designs, musical instruments, personal collection pieces, 60 stage costumes, self-written lyrics, drawings and personal diary entries. An opening in March 2013 opened with a total of 312,000 visitors in five months by then successful exhibition at the "Victoria and Albert Museum". Two days after his 69th birthday and the release of the album "Black Star", Bowie died of liver cancer.
