This is a superbly illustrated artist's book, providing a unique extension of Ono's latest exhibition at the 53rd Venice Biennale. Awarded the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement at the 53rd Venice Biennale - one of the world's foremost international contemporary art exhibitions - Yoko Ono is one of the most influential artists of her generation. Long before she became famous for marrying John Lennon, Ono had become a successful and critically acclaimed conceptual, avant-garde, and performance artist in her own right. Her latest exhibition Anton's Memory, designed especially for the rooms of the Palazzetto Tito in Venice, brings together a number of her earlier works - including touch me III (2008), two filmed versions of her seminal 1964 performance piece "Cut Piece" (1965 & 2003), and "Grapefruit" (1964) - to create the memory of a man's mother, faded by time. "The Other Rooms" serves as a unique extension of this unique exhibition, providing readers with an unparalleled glimpse into the work of one of the world's foremost contemporary artists.
