New exhibit hits Jacksonville | Give Peace a Chance: The Art of John Lennon

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Its message of peace and unity persevere, resonating with audiences across generations; in an increasingly tumultuous world, the lyrics of this Exhibit’s namesake inspire individuals to work towards a harmonious coexistence, making it as relevant today as it was when it was first recorded.

Lennon’s artwork predated his success with the Beatles and remained a passion throughout his years as a music legend. While music will be remembered as his most popular art form, he loved both his literature and his art, studying at Liverpool Art Institute from I957 – I960. During his lifetime, he produced numerous series of sketches and lithographs, which were published starting in the early 1960s. Often surreal and composed through a method of free association, his drawings from this period were widely considered some of the finest interpretive artworks of the era.

Admission to this amazing event and show is complimentary and open to the public.

My Gallery: Gallery 725, the leading fine art space in Jacksonville. All artwork is available for purchase.
