YOKO ONO
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”.

GIVE PEACE A CHANCE
From the very first moment John and I saw each
other, we knew something was about to happen -
something big. We just didn't know how big. When
John and I sang "Give Peace A Chance" from our
Bed-In in Montreal, we had no idea the song would
become an anthem not only for our time but for
generations to come. It went around the world, and
made other songwriters realize that you can convey
political messages with songs. Millions of people got
together and joined in it's chorus. Singing it together
made us all realize that we were a power strong
enough to change the world. Little did we know that
that's when we, John and I, really made our beds for
life.
IMAGINE PEACE!
WAR IS OVER, If you want it.
