“Ex-It” installation, Films and Performances.

Visual artist, director, performer, activist and multimedia interactive artist, Yoko Ono is the “big gun” at this year's Dimitria, as she is taking over the Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art for a month. John Lennon's eternal partner is still restless, undisciplined, unclassifiable, autonomous, using a language that is entirely her own; steadily orbiting the avant-garde and the conceptual, Ono touches upon and hovers between dreamlike fantasy and realism.

With her Ex-it installation – a comment on life, death, return and reincarnation – excites audiences' imaginations, while her well-known interactive project, 'Skyladders', and many other performances regarding immigration, as well as her life before and after the musical legend John Cage – because that is what Sky Piece to Jesus is – Lennon's muse will shake the Greek visual arts scene, and Thessaloniki even more so, in a dreamy and revisionist way. Because “Yoko Ono” means... destroy convention, release the energy. In the spirit of Fluxus and Imagine and mobilising the crème de la crème of Thessaloniki's art scene, we are certainly in for a unique exhibition.

Performances  IMAGINE ALL THE PEOPLE! WISH TREE

Imagine a tree. It will wait there. Yoko made it. It condences within it life and the world. It hides within it the future. What will it be like? What will happen? Do not wonder, act and be quick! Decorate it by writing on it your own wish. And like the song Imagine goes..., you may say I'm a dreamer, but «we're» not the only one!
