“I was inspired by the fact that the doors in Hiroshima all led to disaster, burnt and disappeared. I wanted to recreate the doors, and this time let them lead to world peace.”

An installation of doors and figurative transparent sculptures form  the nucleus of multi-media artist Yoko Ono’s second solo exhibition at  Galerie Lelong, Uncursed.
Yoko Ono says:
When we were children, we learnt at our elementary school how the  warrior, Shikanosuke Yamanaka, vowed to endure seven misfortunes and  eight sufferings, thereby giving all the negative things to him that  would have been given to the people of his city. I was so impressed with  his selfless devotion to people, I wanted to be like him when I grew  up. Then I realized that so many challenging situations were given to me  in life. Much later, I wondered if it would not be better to ask for  seven good fortunes and eight treasures….which I promptly did. It  changed my life.
In my recent exhibition THE ROAD OF HOPE in Hiroshima, the city  of the only country which suffered a nuclear disaster twice in the same  century, I offered blessings to the people of Hiroshima and prayed that  they would be given seven good fortunes and eight treasures.
Ono now envisions these same blessings for New York as a reminder of  our global connectedness and the universality of human experience to  “uncurse” ourselves and move on.

Invitation for Yoko Ono’s 1971 Syracuse exhibition This Is Not here.
Designed with George Maciunas, the invitation was printed on a small square of unfixed photographic paper, corner-folded inward and mailed in a light-safe envelope. The text, which was a photographic image, began to disappear when opened in normal illumination and changed from information about the exhibition to an opaque surface that left only Yoko’s name and the RSVP phone number.
