Amy Winehouse Exhibit to Open at The Jewish Museum in London

The Jewish Museum in London has curated an original exhibition about Amy Winehouse to open July 3. The exhibit was co-curated by her brother Alex and sister-in-law Riva and is an intimate exhibition about her life.

"The family have given the Jewish Museum unprecedented access to Amy's personal belongings that celebrate her passion for music, fashion, suduko, Snoopy, London and her family," says The Jewish Museum's website. "Amy was close to her family and had a strong sense of her Jewish roots and heritage. The exhibition will show many unseen photographs of Amy's family life - Friday night dinners, Alex's Barmitzvah and vintage photographs of their beloved grandmother Cynthia."

The museum's location in Camden Town is a fitting spot as that's where Amy called home. The exhibit is named, Amy Winehouse: A Family Portrait and is set to open in July. Alex Winehouse said about the exhibition according to Vogue UK, "Amy was someone who was incredibly proud of her Jewish-London roots. Whereas other families would go to the seaside on a sunny day, we'd always go derown to the East End. That was who we were, and what we were. We weren't religious, but we were traditional. I hope, in this most fitting of places, that the world gets to see this other side not just to Amy, but to our typical Jewish family."

The exhibit includes never before seen personal photographs, her guitar, record collection and Grammy Award.

"Amy Winehouse was an immensely talented, iconic and inspirational singer and she was a Jewish girl from North London," said Abigail Morris, CEO of the Jewish Museum to Vogue UK. "It is fitting that the Jewish Museum in her beloved Camden Town should be the place to tell her story in the year that she would have celebrated her 30th birthday."

The museum is located just a few blocks from Camden Town Tube station at Raymond Burton House, 129-13 Albert Street. Admission tickets cost £7.50 (about $10) for adults.
