Johnny Depp’s career as an artist continues to blow up.
The “Pirates of the Caribbean” star will launch his first “immersive experiential exhibition” of his work, titled “A Bunch of Stuff,” next month at the Starrett-Lehigh Building in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood.
We’re told that the show will include “never-before-seen artworks as well as many personal artifacts and ephemera from [Depp’s] studios” — and will “be akin to a studio visit with the man himself and stepping into his world.”

We also hear that some heavy hitters from the art world are collaborating with the “Sweeney Todd” star on the project.
“A Bunch of Stuff” opens to the general public Oct. 4, and fans can sign up for tickets to Depp’s NYC show via ABunchOfStuff.com.
The site says the show will be a “multimedia exhibition” that “features large-scale immersive rooms, traditional gallery spaces, and themed retail, guiding you through the different phases of Depp’s life and creative journey, enriched by his own narration.”

The exhibition is being presented by BAUART, in association with Pantheon Art, and in partnership with TAIT, while the venue is represented by the Kagency.
Depp has become a sought-after artist since debuting his work in 2022.
He reportedly sold 780 pieces for $3.6 million, via the UK gallery Castle Fine Art, within hours after he announced a series of prints called “Friends & Heroes.”

The prints were of famous folks who inspired the star, such as Al Pacino, Keith Richards, Bob Dylan and Elizabeth Taylor.
Depp said at the time in a statement: “I’ve always used art to express my feelings and to reflect on those who matter most to me, like my family, friends and people I admire . . . My paintings surround my life, but I kept them to myself and limited myself. No one should ever limit.”
He followed up with two more shows, “Friends & Heroes II” and “Five,” last year before debuting a collection in July of tarot-inspired pieces. Framed sets of four tarot prints sold for $15,950.
