The track was recorded for London’s National Portrait Gallery for its upcoming Zoë Law: Legends exhibition
Noel Gallagher has created a new version of Oasis‘ 1995 hit “Champagne Supernova.” The six-hour, “ambient mixed” rendition will be played in London’s National Portrait Gallery as part of the upcoming Zoë Law: Legends exhibition, which features a portrait of Gallagher.
The photograph of Gallagher was taken by Zoë Law and will go on display on from Nov 29 along with 99 similar portraits of people who have influenced her life and career. It will also become part of the gallery’s permanent collection once the exhibition ends on March 2, 2025. Other portraits in the exhibit include images of Orlando Bloom, Kim Cattral, and Sienna Miller, who was photographed holding the 1967 Epiphone guitar that Gallagher used to write “Champagne Supernova.”
“The thought of the portrait of a grumpy middle-aged man, who frankly hates having his picture taken, being permanently displayed for future generations to marvel at is very special,” Gallagher previously said of the exhibition. “Thanks and praise.”
Law added, “It is the greatest honor that my portrait of the legend Noel Gallagher has been acquired by the National Portrait Gallery – a lasting legacy that all portrait photographers and artists dream of.”
