The same story appears in the latest Q magazine (with Madonna on the cover).
(Q and Mojo come from the same "stable".) The Q story reveals a few more
details. Firstly, their picture shows Kate with Paul Macartney (another
contributor). It also has pictures of the two works although the red dots
are invisible. It reveals that David Bowie thought Kate's pieces were the
best in the show, but that he didn't buy them. They were, however, sold for
something over #1000.
