JOHN LENNON: THE COMPLETE COLLECTION OF ARTWORKS
For the first time in their entirety in Liverpool.
Liverpool will celebrate being awarded European Capital of Culture this year with artwork by one of its most famous sons being shown in the capital. The exhibition will feature the Complete Collection of John Lennon’s artwork for the first time in their entirety in Liverpool. The exhibition runs at the Liverpool Daily Post and Echo building from 23 May until 2 June, before embarking on a museum tour of Germany.
Jonathan Poole, exhibition organiser, comments:
“It is very exciting to have the Complete Collection of Lennon’s work, and fitting that it should be showcased in his home city, during a year highlighting Liverpool’s cultural position in Europe. I began my career exhibiting works by John Lennon and, personally, I am a huge fan of his works. This exhibition gives people the chance to see a different side of John in terms of his artistry and also his unique personality.”
Although best known as a musician, art was also a huge part of John’s life and he attended the Liverpool School of Art from 1957-1960, before becoming part of one of the most famous bands of all time.
The collection features works by Lennon dating from 1968 until his untimely death in 1980 and features fifteen original drawings. This exhibition has been organised in conjunction with Yoko Ono’s company, Bag One and demonstrates the various styles used by John Lennon to express his imaginative artistic style.
