Julian Lennon to unveil new photography exhibition in Venice: Whispers – A Julian Lennon Retrospective
Lennon’s latest art exhibition explores the intimate connection between humanity, nature, and conservation through a heartfelt lens. This highly anticipated exhibition will be open to the public from August 28 to November 24th, 2024. The unique photography collection is a captivating journey through Lennon’s illustrious career. The exhibition, curated by Julian Lennon and Sandrina Bonetti Rubelli, showcases a rich body of work that spans Lennon’s diverse artistic journey, from his early days in music to his extensive portfolio in photography. Through this retrospective, visitors will experience the evolution of Lennon’s artistic voice, steeped in humanitarianism and inspired by his philanthropic endeavors for his nonprofit, The White Feather Foundation.
It is inspiring to bring Julian Lennon’s Work to Venice in what will be a composite Retrospective. In a city vulnerable and fragile as well as layered with Art, History, and facing continuous challenges and contradictions, this exhibition will merge seamlessly with its multifaceted aspects: from the cultural intensity of its Art Biennale to the glamour of its Film Festival, to the Environment, to a Soulful Introspection into themes dear to the individual and community alike, this is more than just a collection of photographs; it’s a glimpse and focus into the Soul and Mind of an Artist, who has Life in its broadest sense at heart, and uses his Insight and Craft to inspire and raise awareness to deep and meaningful causes.

When you think of Venice, you think of Beauty, Art and Culture. To be able to showcase my Photography work in a place as prestigious as Le Stanze della Fotografia – International Center for Photography – alongside a Helmut Newton Retrospective, during the Art Biennale, the Film Festival, and the Homo Faber Journey into human life through Craft, equals embracing a unique Life Experience, and is something very, very special. This Retrospective is not just about Photography, it’s about embracing the subtle yet powerful moments that remind us of our privilege to preserve and cherish our Life on this Planet.
