Yoko Ono At Moderna Museet

Curiosity took me to Moderna Museet (modern fine art museum) the other twenty-four hours to come across the Yoko Ono exhibition "Grapefruit". I've ever been aware of her equally a cultural figure... artist, Beatle-wife in addition to icon, but I convey non been real familiar alongside her art. "Grapefruit" is a smaller exhibition containing writings, sketches in addition to films of the artist. The writings are inwards the shape of instructions in addition to ideas for conceptual fine art that the viewer tin laissez passer on the sack create themselves or merely imagine (pun intended). Many of these gave me a chuckle. I peculiarly enjoyed the films which highlight Ono equally a surgical operation artist. One such cinema documented a alive surgical operation where she invited audience members to come upward up on the phase in addition to cutting off a slice of her clothing. Be aware that around of the films mightiness non hold upward suitable for pocket-size children. This exhibition volition hold upward showing until September 16th.
Besides "Grapefruit", other electrical current exhibitions at Moderna are "Explosion! Painting equally Action" in addition to "Sturtevant, Image Over Image". While at the museum, hold upward certain to see their café alongside wonderful views over the harbour in addition to Standvägen equally good equally their museum store which has a neat pick of fine art & photography books equally good equally posters in addition to other knick-knacks. The museum is located on the isle of Skeppsholmen. The easiest agency to larn in that place from the Rival Hotel is yesteryear taking the Djurgårds ferry from Slussen. Just say the ticket collector that you lot wishing to become to Skeppsholmen.
