Über John Lennon

John Lennon was a singer, songwriter, peace and human rights activist, author, artist, and continues to be a worldwide inspiration. Born in 1940 in Liverpool, he rose to fame with his band The Beatles in the 1960s, and went on to have an acclaimed solo career until his death in 1980. Lennon's marriage and collaboration with artist Yoko Ono inspired his iconic peace anthem Imagine. Among Lennon's books which are collections of his stories and drawings are: In His Own Write, A Spaniard in the Works, Skywriting by Word of Mouth, AI - Japan Through John Lennon's Eyes, and Real Love- the Drawings for Sean.

Yoko Ono Lennon is an artist whose thought-provoking work challenges people's understanding of art and the world around them. From the beginning of her career, she was a conceptualist whose work encompassed performance, instructions, film, music, sculpture, installation and writing. Born in Tokyo, she moved to New York aged twenty and opened her Chambers Street loft in 1960, where she hosted exhibitions and performances. She has shown her work all over the world, including several films and her first retrospective, in France in 2016. In 2007, Ono created the permanent installation IMAGINE PEACE TOWER on Videy Island, Iceland, and continues to work tirelessly for peace with her IMAGINE PEACE campaign. In 2009 Ono received the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement from the Venice Biennale.
