Yoko Ono’s "Cut Piece" was one of the performances I did on June 11, 2008 at El Círculo de Bellas Artes in Madrid as part of the opening ceremony of VISIBLE : The LGBT Culture Festival, created and curated by Pablo Peinado.
Yoko Ono has performed “Cut Piece” several times from 1964 in Kyoto and Tokyo until 2003 in Paris. She has said that “Cut Piece” is her hope for World Peace and her stand against ageism, against racism, against sexism, and against violence.
This time I wanted to perform “Cut Piece” for Gay Human Rights and I wanted it to be a kind of Memorial to the ones that were repressed, oppressed, killed or executed in history in the whole world because of their sexual orientation.
In the wedding dress that I wear there are written the names of many that suffered that violence, so I asked the audience to cut and keep those names as a way of protection and love for them.
The hat I wear is not a fairy cap as some people wrongly thought. Itis the kind of pointed hood that the Spanish Inquisition put on the people to humiliate them.
The music with the video is the aria "Casta Diva" from Bellini’s "Norma". It was used in the performance along with so many other songs like Yoko Ono’s “Shiranakatta”

"CUT PIECE" de Yoko Ono fue una de las performances que realicé en el Círculo de Bellas Artes de Madrid el 11 de junio de 2008 como parte del acto de apertura del Festival de cultura LGTB VISIBLE que dirige Pablo Peinado.
Realizada por Yoko Ono, la obra ha simbolizado la entrega total del artista, pero también la violencia sufrida por mujeres, ancianos y homosexuales. En esta ocasión quise que esta pieza ayudara a recordar e hiciera revivir a todas las personas represaliadas, asesinadas o ejecutadas a lo largo de la historia en todo el mundo debido a su orientación sexual.
En el vestido de novia que llevaba estaban escritos sus nombres y pedí a los asistentes que los recortaran y se los llevaran como una forma de protección y muestra de amor hacia toda persona discriminada.
El gorro que llevo no es un gorro de hada como alguna gente interpretó, sino que representa el "capirote" que se ponía a los condenados por la Inquisición.
La música que acompaña el video es el aria “Casta Diva” de la ópera “Norma” de Bellini.

Miss Yoko Ono, who came to London
on the wave of auto-destructive events
which attracted so many Americans, has
struck out on her own Zen path towards
what she calls 'Concept Art'. After giving
several successful and highly professional
'concerts' she will now appear at Indica
Gallery (November 9-22) in a one-lady
show of Instruction Paintings. Associating
her work with her audience, she will invite
them to be directly responsible for the
construction of the paintings. Thus,
blank canvases and other objects in the
exhibition 'will evolve into perpetually
unfinished works that will be for sale at
any time during the show, but will never
be finished even after the sale as the
buyer and his audience are instructed to
continue adding or detracting from the
works as long as they are in existence.'
Miss Ono is also manufacturing her
Bagwear, a black sack that envelops the
entire body, and into which one is invited
to creep as a means of escaping from one's
paranoid moments. Born in Tokyo, Miss
Ono will also conduct events daily at the
gallery during the run of the exhibition.

On this date in 1980, John Lennon was murdered. I was asleep at time, and when my mom told the news the next morning I was furious with her for not having woken me up to tell me right away. It was, from the perspective of a 12-year-old whose favorite band was the Beatles, the single biggest news story that had occured in my lifetime, and the idesa that I had been allowed to sleep through it was appalling.
This is a Christmas card sent by John Lennon and Yoko Ono in 1969 to Karlheinz Stockhausen, a avant-garde German composer who was a pioneer in the field of electronic music. Stockhausen was a particular inspiration to Lennon, and his work is said to have influenced "A Day in the Life" and "Revolution #9." He is one of the figures pictured on the cover of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. (He's in the top row, just to the left of W. C. Fields.)

These are officially undated photos, but if I had to make a guess I would say they were from September 1980.

SPACE TRANSFORMER, 2009
"From the book Yoko Ono: Instruction Paintings (1995)
'Thirty years ago, in 1962, I did an exhibition of
instruction paintings at Sogetsu Art Center in Tokyo. A
year before, I did a show of instruction paintings at AG
Gallery in New York, but that was exhibiting canvases
with instructions attached to them. Displaying just the
instructions as paintings was going one step further,
pushing visual art to its optimum conceptualism; it
would open up a whole new horizon for the visual
arts. I was totally excited by the idea and its visual
possibilities. To make the point that the instructions
were not themselves graphic images, I wanted the
instructions to be typed.'
Conceptual and fluxus artist, poet and composer,
Yoko Ono presents here an installation from her series
of space transformations, which, as the artist has
said, work mainly as an invocation 'to constructing
in your head,' to urge viewers to make their own
transformations as they move through space and time.
"SPACE TRANSFORMER" as presented here, consists
of security barriers which delineate a specific site in the
space chosen for transformation."

Yoko Ono
Conceptual and fluxus artist, Yoko Ono, will present a work from her series of space transformations which, as the artist has said, work mainly as an invocation “to constructing in your head”. The installation being presented in this exhibition will consist of security barriers which delineate a specific site in the space chosen for transformation together with the sign "SPACE TRANSFORMER IS BEING BUILT”. The installation will be accompanied by take away cards which continue the concept as one goes through the city with the invocation to be a “SPACE TRANSFORMER”.
