Yoko Ono & John Lennon

· Exhibition TATE MODERN LONDON: Yoko Ono Music of the Mind

Exhibition TATE MODERN LONDON: Yoko Ono Music of the Mind

TATE MODERN LONDON
Yoko Ono Music of the Mind
15 February – 1 September 2024

Delve into the powerful, participatory work of artist and activist Yoko Ono

Yoko Ono (1933) is a leading figure in conceptual and performance art, experimental film and music. Developing her practice in America, Japan and the UK, she is renowned for her activism, work for world peace, and environmental campaigns. Ideas are central to her art, often expressed in poetic, humorous and radical ways.

Spanning more than seven decades, the exhibition focuses on key moments in Ono’s career, including her years in London from 1966 to 1971, where she met John Lennon (1940 – 1980).

The show explores some of Ono’s most talked about artworks and performances, from Cut Piece (1964), where people were invited to cut off her clothing, to her banned Film No.4 (Bottoms) (1966-67) which she created as a ‘petition for peace’.

Alongside her early performances, works on paper, objects, and music, audiences will discover a selection of her activist projects such as PEACE is POWER and Wish Tree, where visitors can contribute personal wishes for peace.

Through her instructions and event scores, Ono invites visitors to take part in both simple acts of the imagination and active encounters with her works.

The exhibition is organised by Tate Modern, London in collaboration with Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen, Düsseldorf
