The original edition of “Exhibitionism” opened at London’s Saatchi Gallery in 2015. Extended stops in New York, Chicago, Las Vegas, and Sydney, Australia followed.
Unzipped features items from the band members’ own personal collections, including stage outfits and instruments, as well as numerous other unique collectibles. It’s billed as the “largest touring experience of its kind ever to be staged.” (Best Classic Bands saw its New York installation; it’s sensational.)

According to an earlier press release, the Stones “unlocked their vast private archive exploring the very beginning of their history” for the exhibit, which traces the band’s history from its 1962 inception to the present day.
The earlier edition included 500 rare artifacts and memorabilia spanning the band’s 54-year career and continued influence on fashion, film and art. It gave visitors a look back at the high points of the band’s career through a new film, with a high-octane soundtrack. It then stepped back into the early days, to a recreation of the Edith Grove flat just off the King’s Road in London’s Chelsea neighborhood that Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Brian Jones shared in 1962.
In an earlier statement, Mick Jagger said, “We’ve thought about this for quite a long time but we wanted it to be just right and on a large scale. It’s not like walking into a museum. It’s an event, an experience. It’s about a sense of the Rolling Stones. It’s something we want people to go away talking about it.”
