Art That Intrigued Lennon on Exhibit
Billie
attention? It's at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
The Beatles star first met Ono in 1966 when he examined a piece she created
called "Ceiling Painting." The piece consists of a ladder that viewers climb to
look through a magnifying glass focused on the word "yes."
Lennon and Ono were married from 1969 until his death in 1980. They had one
child, Sean, who was born in 1975.
"Ceiling Painting" is so delicate now that viewers can no longer climb it, but
it is part of an exhibit of the Japanese artist's work at the museum. Another
piece on display is "Sky Piece of Jesus Christ," in which a chamber group plays
classical music while other performers wrap them in gauze until they cannot
play.
The exhibit opened over the weekend and runs until Sept. 8.
"STUPIDITY IS NOT A HANDICAP. Park elsewhere!"

This collection of horseshit just closed in Toronto. 187 people
came to see it.
Maybe Yoko could make a performance piece out of
non-attendance/indifference...
