moma:In 1971, Yoko Ono had her unofficial MoMA debut: she posted a sign outside the entrance stating that she had released flies on the Museum grounds, and the public was invited to track them as they dispersed across the city. Now, over 40 years later, Yoko Ono: One Woman Show, 1960–1971 (May 17, 2015–September 07, 2015) will survey the decisive decade that led up to Ono’s unauthorized exhibition at MoMA, bringing together approximately 125 of her early objects, works on paper, installations, performances, audio recordings, and films, alongside rarely seen archival materials.
