Yoko Ono

Yoko Ono is a multi-media artist who constantly challenges and stretches the traditional boundaries of sculpture, painting, theatre and music. Her seminal performance art in the early 1960s, experimental fi lms and collaborative music with John Lennon in the 1970s and international one-woman shows and retrospectives during the 1980s and 1990s illustrate her varied career. Refl ecting on her reputation for being outrageous, Yoko smiles and says, “I do have to rely on my own judgement, although to some people my judgement seems a little out of sync. I have my own rhythm and my own timing, and that’s simply how it is.”
