Yoko Ono

Чем занималась Йоко в потерянный уик-энд. Дала концерт на фестивале в городе Корияма и выпустила альбом. Публика была в восторге. Неоднократно звали на бис.

"My father was a banker, but he’d always wanted to become a pianist. All my childhood, I heard him play, but after the stroke, he couldn’t play anymore. I reacted to it very emotionally. Back then, I thought my father, being a banker, was contributing to society, and I wanted to follow in his footsteps.” -Setsuko (2018)

"I do not know if artistic thread is natural for my family. Certainly, my family had many artists. My father’s regret of becoming a banker instead of a professional pianist. My mother’s sadness for not being able to become a professional painter although her teacher, a famous painter, thought she could. Art was something that was respected in our household almost as much as life." -Setsuko (2018)

CITY PIECE VII
Imagine the largest rainbow going from north to south.
Visit the two ends of the rainbow.

Представь себе
огромную радугу
с севера на юг,
Пройди от начала
до конца этой радуги.

И ещё одина из бесчисленных видео шуток на тему пения Йоко. Пусть не обидятся поклонники бабушки. Получилось удачно.
