The Yoko Ono Project
Three very different Asian-Canadian women fall into the world of Yoko Ono -- her music, art, Instruction Poems and words -- and are never the same again.

Yoko Ono
For more than sixty years, Yoko Ono has fascinated us as one of the world's most innovative and radical artists. From a childhood of both extraordinary privilege and extreme deprivation in war-time Japan, she adopted an outsider's persona, moved to America, and discovered New York's bohemian arts scene. She was established as a performance artist in the Fluxus movement, and already twice divorced, before meeting the Beatles' John Lennon at a London Gallery in 1966. Their intense, headline-grabbing romance, said to have blown-up the Beatles, and resulting in her famous bed-ins and musical collaborations with Lennon, captivated the world. Through it all, and for decades after his tragic death, she remained defiantly herself. ?Yoko Ono: An Artful Life charts her journey of personal turmoil, artistic evolution, and activism, and at last tells her iconic story on her own terms.

John & Yoko/Plastic Ono Band
A definitive, in-depth, revelatory exploration of John Lennon's intensely personal first major solo album after the breakup of the Beatles. Described by Lennon as "the best thing I've ever done," and widely regarded as his best solo album, John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band was released on 11 December 1970. With first-hand commentary by Lennon, Ono, and other members of the band, and packed with previously unseen photographs by those who documented their lives, this incisive volume offers new insights into the raw emotions and open mindset of Lennon after marriage to Ono and the breakup of the Beatles, to the making of the album and revealing interview with Jann Wenner in December 1970. Primal therapy had a huge impact on Lennon's songwriting, resulting in the creation of intensely personal, soul-baring tracks. This book takes his lyrics as a starting point and explores Lennon's life, career, and self-perception, from "performing flea" with the Beatles to authenticity as a solo artist.

Yoko Ono - A Portrait of an Avant-Garde Artist (Biography)
Yoko Ono - A Portrait of an Avant-Garde Artist is the biography of Yoko Ono, a popular Japanese artist and musician. Ono is known for her work as avant-garde artist and musician, as well as her marriage and works with English musician John Lennon, of Beatles fame. She currently lives in New York City. John Lennon once described her as "the world's most famous unknown artist: everybody knows her name, but nobody knows what she does." Ono first met John Lennon when he visited a preview of an exhibition of Ono's at the Indica Gallery in London on November 9, 1966. Lennon's first personal encounter with Ono involved her passing him a card that read simply "Breathe." He was taken with the positivity, humour, and interactivity of her work. Yoko Ono - A Portrait of an Avant-Garde Artist is highly recommended for those interested in reading more about this talented artist.
