Yoko Ono – Dream Come True at MALBA is the first retrospective of artist Yoko Ono – an essential figure in conceptual and participatory contemporary art – to be held in Argentina.
The show includes over eighty works, among them objects, videos, films, installations, sound pieces and recordings produced from the early sixties through the present. The cornerstone of the show is the Instructions Pieces, which Ono has been working on for over fifty years.
Through her works, Ono has created an array of relationships with viewers, inviting them to play an active role in her art’s creative process. She uses a clear language to produce objects, events, rituals and actions that are consummated, both materially and mentally, by the audience.
Simple and poetic messages, the “instructions” invite viewers to perform certain actions. They formulate questions about the conceptual basis of the work of art, viewers’ participation in its material production, the ephemeral, and the desanctification of the art object.
