LINDA MCCARTNEY TO HAVE ART SHOW

Beatle Paul McCartney is happy his late wife Linda's vintage photographs are finally going on display in the U.K. - because the exhibition will help to keep her memory alive. A London show of her photos is set at the James Hyman Gallery on Friday, in what will be the first major display of her work. The art show will also mark the 10th anniversary of her death. She lost her battle with cancer in April 1998. The singer is delighted to be able to honor his "great" wife’s memory by putting the collection of works on display. He says, "Since she passed away, the thing is that you worry that she’s not around, so her stuff is not going to be exhibited."We work as a family to ensure that her work is still exhibited, so it means that people are exposed who haven’t seen it before. It’s great for me just to remind people how great she was."
