REACHING OUT WITH NO HANDS: RECONSIDERING YOKO ONO
Book ID/图书代码: 05793012B54584
English Summary/英文概要: John Lennon once described her as "the world’s most famous unknown artist: everybody knows her name, but nobody knows what she does." Many people are aware of her art, and her music has always split crowds, from her caterwauling earliest work to her later dance numbers, but how many people have looked at Yoko Ono’s decades-spanning career and varied work in total and asked the simple question, "Is it any good?" From her earliest work with the Fluxus group and especially her relationship with John Cage, through her enigmatic pop happenings (where she met John Lennon), her experimental films, cryptic books, conceptual art, and her long recording career that has vacillated between avant-garde noise and proto-new wave, earning the admiration of other artists while generally confusing the public at large who often sees her only in the role of the widow Lennon, Reaching Out with No Hands is the first serious, critical, wide-ranging look at Yoko Ono the artist and musician. A must-read for art and music fans interested in going beyond the stereotyped observations of Yoko as a Lennon hanger-on or inconsequential avant noisemaker.
Chinese Summary/中文概要:
約翰•列儂稱為“世界上最有名的不為人知的藝術家”
小野洋子,大家都知道她是誰,但沒有人知道她幹了點什麼。
很多人看過她的藝術表演,聽過她的音樂。但有多少人宏觀地看待過小野洋子幾十年的藝術生涯,從她早期的怨情媚聲到她後期的舞蹈製作,有多少人能宏觀地看待,思考一下“這些表演好在哪兒?”
有沒有人明白她早期與激浪組合的合作,特別是與約翰•凱奇的關係?她神秘的流行表演(就是她遇到約翰•列儂的場合)、她的實驗電影、詭秘圖書、概念藝術和介於前衛噪音藝術和後起新潮藝術之間的事業既為她贏得了其他藝術家的讚譽,又招來了公眾的非議,認為她只是約翰•列儂的寡婦,在借著亡夫賺錢。《沒有伸出的手》是首部把小野洋子當做藝術家和音樂家看待的書,給了她客觀嚴肅的評價。對於那些藝術和音樂迷們,想要讀懂真正的小野洋子,而不僅僅用世俗的眼光把她看成活在約翰•列儂光輝下的女人或者看成微不足道的前衛噪音製造者……(Celia)
