BEVERLY HILLS—The first Amy Winehouse exhibit to take place in the United States will debut at the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles from January 17 to April 13, 2020. Stage worn costumes, handwritten lyrics, journal entries and more from her family’s personal archive will comprise the “Beyond Black — The Style of Amy Winehouse” exhibition. Tickets are available at www.grammymuseum.org.
The Grammy Museum stated that the exhibit “captures the spirit of Winehouse through some of her most cherished and unique outfits that showcase her wit and charm by displaying never-before-seen handwritten lyrics and prolific journal entries.”
Select personal items presented at the Grammy exhibition will be auctioned for the first time on November 6 and 7, 2021 by Julien’s Auction House in Beverly Hills where all proceeds will benefit The Amy Winehouse Foundation. The Amy Winehouse Foundation was established by the singers parents, Mitch and Janis Winehouse, with the purpose of raising awareness to support young adults struggling with addiction problems.
Julien’s Auction House has auctioned memorabilia from several celebrities including Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra, Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, and Olivia Newton-John. Bidding during live auctions have been made accessible online for global participants.
Such items for the musician include Winehouse’s dress worn in her final stage performance in Belgrade in her 2011 Summer Festival Tour. Winehouse’s red leather, heart shaped purse used at the 2007 BRIT Awards, custom-made and designed for her by Moschino, will also be held for bidding at auction.
Other stage worn wardrobe to be presented at the auction include a Tina Kalivas skirt worn by Winehouse at the 50th Annual GRAMMY Awards in 2008 where she won five of the six awards for which she was nominated. Highlighted items presented at the auction will tour around the world in South America, Europe and the U.S. for the public to view prior to the auction.
“Amy’s music and influence reached across genres and generations. It’s an honor for the Grammy Museum to host her very first exhibit in the United States and celebrate her talents, creative process and musical legacy,” said Grammy Museum President Michael Sticka.
