yoko ono: das gift
Haunch of Venison, Berlin, Germany
September 10th 2010 – November 13th 2011
From the press release: "Yoko Ono’s installation consists of sculptural, sound, film, and instruction-based participatory elements, which have been conceived specifically for this exhibition. A HOLE, a fragile yet brutally forceful sculpture, is a focal point of the exhibition. It presents viewers with a pane of glass pierced by a bullet, with an instruction engraved on the glass, which reads: “GO TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE GLASS AND SEE THROUGH THE HOLE”. Ono’s instruction encourages viewers to see from the perspective of both aggressor and victim, simultaneously engaging two opposing viewpoints. Speaking about the exhibition, Ono states: “I’’d like to draw awareness to all the violence that is happening all over the world. I ask the people who come and visit the exhibition to bring something of their own personal experience with violence: a picture, or a text, that will then be placed on the gallery wall. In the upper floor, however, there will be a room where one only smiles.” Visitor’s smiles will be included in a streaming video, on view during the exhibition."

From the museum press release: "Those themes which are heavy but seems light, love, family, wishes and death, presented in a undefiled way, it's a strength that soft, at least wants to make you feel the soft strength and touched. In her totem, the various sentiments, are the necessity of life, life is not all roses if lost, yet more luxuriant if more. In Yoko’s most famous work Wish Tree, she collects lots of wishes from all over the world, and sends them to the Imagine Peace Tower in Reykjavik, which was built for her beloved John, to pray that all the lovely wishes would come true, the same as they pray for peace. The audiences will receive Yoko’s call during the exhibition, which is her other work, Telephone Piece, a talking sculpture. Most of Yoko’s video works are searching the freedom of spirit is the theme, which can be seen from her Instruction Works. This personal-ceremony like work will also flourish in Guangzhou, and the audiences will take the invitation with one of her Instruction Pieces to participate her art."

RIA Novosti: "Yoko Ono's Odyssey
of a Cockroach installation will be shown as part of Moscow's Second Contemporary
Art Biennale in June, after being exhibited in London and New York City. Its billboard-size
color photographs and towering sculptures are arranged into a phantasmagorical
mise-en-scene to present modern urban life through the eyes of a cockroach. Describing
the genesis of this project, Ono said: "I have taken various pictures of
the city's corners and presented them from a cockroach's point of view. Through
the eyes of this other strong race, we may learn the true reality of what our
dreams and nightmares have created." Read

a series of D.C. public art interventions organized by Nora Halpern and Welmoed
Laanstra, Ono is gearing up stage a series of interventions." From the press

it is individual peace of mind, peace for a local community, or a more global
aspiration. By installing components throughout the city, the project seeks to
unite the varying neighborhoods of Washington and their residents and workers
in the desire for progress and understanding--in matters large and small, at home
and abroad."
