YOKO ONO: LOOKING FOR... (SKY PIECES) illustrates Ono’s fascination with the sky. Following her escape from Tokyo during the World War II bombing raids, the sky has appeared repeatedly in Ono’s work as a metaphor for peace, freedom, the unknowable and the eternal.
About
Yoko Ono's exhibition at The Heong Gallery illustrates Ono’s fascination with the sky. Following her escape from Tokyo during the World War II bombing raids, the sky has appeared repeatedly in Ono’s work as a metaphor for peace, freedom, the unknowable and the eternal.
Conceived and curated by Gabriella Daris, YOKO ONO: LOOKING FOR.. (2 March – 31 December 2019) is a 10-month, multi-site exhibition showcasing Ono’s work in Cambridge for the first time.
Featuring over ninety early, recent and new works, most of which are participatory and will evolve as the exhibition unfolds, YOKO ONO: LOOKING FOR… will offer the opportunity to immerse ourselves fully within Ono’s multifaceted world, demonstrating the wide-ranging scope of her artistic practice, spanning an array of media including text, painting, sculpture, installation, performance, event, music, film and video.
A diverse programme of events including interventions, installations, performances, screenings and symposia will take place at Lady Mitchell Hall, The Heong Gallery, Howard Theatre, Alison Richard Building, Ruskin Gallery, Mumford Theatre and Cambridge Junction as well as many public sites in the city.
