The singer, who died at his home in Estonia in December, last year, at the age of 63, inspired generations of musicians over a career that spanned a total of five decades.
The pop-up exhibition was co-created by Malcolm Garrett, Joanne Fowler, Martyn Walsh, Peter Wadsworth and Helen Stalker.
It has formed a backdrop to a series of unique “in conversation” events to bring together key figures from Pete’s life and career.
