Wentworth Gallery will be presenting a collection of works by Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee Elvis Costello in South Florida in January 2025. Making his art show debut, Costello will showcase his creations at two Wentworth Gallery locations in South Florida. 

The first event is scheduled on January 10, 2025 at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood from 7-9pm. The following evening, on January 11, 2025, Costello will be at Boca Raton Town Center Mall from 6-8pm.

Elvis Costello’s songs have filled thirty-three and a third studio albums and he has played on stages from The Yankee Clipper in Liverpool to the Whiskey A-Go-Go in Hollywood and from Carnegie Hall to the Ryman Auditorium, Nashville, l’Olympia, Paris, the London Palladium, and in Cain’s Ballroom Tulsa. His solo performance of The Beatles’ “All You Need Is Love” during “Live Aid” was accompanied by many of the 70,000 attendees at Wembley Stadium on that day in 1985.

His renowned collaborations include fifteen songs written with Paul McCartney, thirty songs written with Burt Bacharach and an equal number written with Allen Toussaint and Costello’s wife, the Jazz pianist and vocalist, Diana Krall.

At 70 years old, Costello extends this creative energy into the world of visual arts, bringing his distinctive vision to a new medium. His transition into painting builds on experimental album covers that have gradually become more collaborative. Known for their imagery and unconventional typography, these covers offered a glimpse of what we now see in his own visual compositions.
