PREVIOUSLY unseen photographs of Amy Winehouse have been installed on benches around King’s Cross in a new exhibition celebrating the 20th anniversary of Back to Black, her seminal album.

The free outdoor exhibit covers 30 benches in Granary Square and shows the celebrated singer through the eyes of photographers who worked closely with her throughout her career. It has been curated by the King’s Cross Group, together with Universal Music and the Amy Winehouse Estate.

Events manager at the King’s Cross Group, Emma Symonds, said: “Amy Winehouse remains one of London’s most beloved cultural icons. Through these powerful photographs, we hope people can celebrate Amy’s enduring legacy and experience a more personal side of an artist who continues to resonate across generations.”

The exhibition will run until October 15.
