Live Odyssey has partnered with Pop Nouveau, holder of one of the largest private collections of music art in the world, to curate the exhibition that will celebrate iconic album and single covers, and unseen artwork that have defined generations of artists. The space features a rotating collection of 3,500 original album and single cover artworks, live art installations, and exclusive prints for sale. A highlight will be the Lennon Wired Exhibition, created by renowned artist James Wilkinson. Each piece in the collection features intricate segments from microphone leads, which Wilkinson acquired from the sale of John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s Tittenhurst Park estate. This collection pays tribute to John Lennon’s artistic legacy and eclectic style.
“I’m overawed to know that these wires James has included in his work were part of the creative process that became the iconic song, Imagine. I am sure you will love it as much as I do.” Julia Baird (John Lennon’s sister)
The exhibition will also include ‘The Tapes WE Left Behind’ – a striking collection that showcases art created from Master Tapes from some of the world’s most iconic musicians, including Queen, David Bowie, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Morrissey and Madness.
The live bands are carefully curated using the best musicians in the business paying homage to the best and most iconic artists whilst reworking their songs in a way that befits their legacy. This spectacular music show will stand alone letting the music speak.
