Selections from 'Grapefruit' (1964) | Yoko Ono

Where else can one simultaneously lose and find oneself than in Yoko Ono's 'Grapefruit'? First published in 1964, this book of 'Instructions and Drawings' is a touchstone of conceptual art. It contains a series of 'event scores' that replace the physical work of art and instructions which the individual may or may not enact. The name Grapefruit was chosen as title because Ono believed the grapefruit to be a hybrid of an orange and a lemon, and thus a reflection of herself as "a spiritual hybrid". This performance was directed and conducted by Yvette Ofa Agapow. Here's what she had to say on the experience: "I had a lot of fun putting this performance together; working out how we could create something large-scale using Ono’s minimal specifications. It was important to me to translate these works that so often reflect otherwise ‘average’ processes (e.g. listening to a heartbeat or drawing a line) into something liminal - that transcended time - to create a sense of wonder around them in the concert hall. I often think about how women like Ono are disrespected or are called ‘weird’, and how much of a better place the world would be if we all, like her, just listened a bit more."
