艺术家: Yoko Ono

Yoko Ono (born 1933, Tokyo) is a pioneering artist, film-maker, poet, musician, writer, performance artist and peace activist. Her prolific career has spanned five decades - she has embraced a wide range of media, defying traditional boundaries and creating new forms of artistic expression.

The Serpentine Gallery will present a major exhibition of Ono's work, her first show in a London public institution for more than a decade. Consisting of new and existing works, including some that have rarely been shown in the UK, Ono will present a selection of installations and films.

An important aspect of the exhibition will be SMILE, a large-scale participatory project that records people's smiles to create a global anthology of portraits. This timely exhibition will reflect upon the enormous impact Ono has made on contemporary art, exploring her influential role in art, film and performance.

Yoko Ono TO THE LIGHT at the Serpentine Gallery will be part of the London 2012 Festival, a spectacular 12-week UK-wide celebration from 21 June to 9 September 2012.
