In the Queerguru Office, we are all still major fans of the late great AMY WINEHOUSE who the world sadly lost way before her time. We’re thrilled then to learn that the DESIGN MUSEUM in London is mounting an Exhibit to celebrate the legacy and creativity of one of the greatest musicians of our time.
AMY : BEYOND THe STAGE will tell the story of Amy’s early career through her recordings and teenage notebooks to unravel the creative process behind her music, and pay tribute to her rich range of influences, from Dinah Washington to Mark Ronson, Camden to ’60s pop, Motown to jazz.
You will be able to see the outfits she wore during her greatest performances, handwritten lyrics and personal items that have never been exhibited before, including her blue Daphne Fender Stratocaster guitar, to step backstage with a cultural icon that the world lost too soon.
The exhibition is being organized by the Design Museum in collaboration with The Estate of Amy Winehouse which is waiving its right to royalties in favor of the Amy Winehouse Foundation.
