Yoko Ono
BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art will present YOKO ONO: BETWEEN THE SKY AND MY HEAD, comprising work by Yoko Ono from 1961 to the present. The exhibition, one of the largest exhibitions of Yoko Ono's work to date, and will occupy two floors of BALTIC with additional works located outside the gallery. The exhibition will contain sculpture, paintings, drawing, photography, films and sound installations, as well as participation works. Among the 50 works featured in the exhibition is Play it by Trust, a conceptual chess set, made from white Italian Carrara marble. A version of the work was first exhibited in London at Ono's legendary exhibition at the Indica Gallery in 1966. Another work, My Mommy is Beautiful, is a participatory piece in which visitors to BALTIC are invited to bring photographs of their mothers, along with thoughts and memories about their mothers, to be permanently attached to the blank canvases. At the conclusion of the exhibition, the filled canvases will be sent to the artist in New York.
