YOKO ONO
Yoko Ono (1933)
She is a Japanese multimedia artist, singer, songwriter, and peace activist. Her work also encompasses performance art and filmmaking.
Yoko Ono grew up in Tokyo and moved to New York City in 1952. She became involved with New York City's downtown artists scene in the early 1960s, which included the Fluxus group, and became well known in 1969 when she married English musician John Lennon of the Beatles.
Over the years Yoko Ono created several artprojects with Rene Rietmeyer. The photo as seen here below were made by Rene Rietmeyer for the Yoko Ono Project "ARISING", and they became a limited editions series.
Yoko Ono recently stated: "Jump out of bed, take a deep breath and be thankful for being alive on another beautiful day. You know it is a beautiful day, since you are still alive!"
