John Lennon is not dead

We die three times. The first time is when are heart stops beating. the second time is when we're put in the ground and the third time is when everyone stops saying our name. John Lennon will live on forever in the hearts of fans all around the world. We'll never forget him.
John Lennon Is Not Dead will feature 80 artists who want to keep his memory alive. Some will paint or draw Lennon, some will make reference to his art, other s will make work inspired by his lyrics.
The majority of the show will be affordable, small scale, pop art. There will however be a few surprises. The work will be hung cheek by jowl in a salon style.

. A splendid time is guaranteed for all.
