Lennon Art Comes Together in Houston
The Houston Chronicle reports that more than 100 pieces, a few of which were only recently unearthed, will be included in Come Together: The Artwork of John Lennon, a three-day exhibit at the Houston Galleria starting tomorrow (October 26th)
The pieces will mostly include Lennon’s iconic pen and ink drawings, sometimes with dappled spots of color; “minimalist,” as Yoko Ono calls them.”He did some oil paintings way back,” she said in the report. “Pretty large stuff. But I don’t know where they are anymore. I’m fairly certain I don’t have them. They just got lost in the course of life.”
Among the items are lithographs from Lennon’s Bag-One Suite in 1970, some drawings from the ’60s and some limited-edition reproductions signed by Ono.
If I get the time this weekend, I may take the trip over to Houston to check this exhibit out.
