The Imagine Peace Tower at Night
Yoko Ono’s Imagine Peace Tower is up in Reykjavík until Saturday. It is a stunning and interesting work, and there is a live webcam that is particularly amazing at night. Take a look around the Imagine Peace site. [via]
I’ve always been drawn to Ono’s work for its simplicity of vision and statement. As derided as she often is, I think she’s truly attempting to make change in this world. I have seen many of her works in person, and a truly breathtaking performance at the old Tonic on the Lower East Side a few years ago. Until you’ve experienced her work in person, and been allowed to interact with it in the way she hopes, it is difficult to see the power of her simple ideas.
