Yoko Ono当时的生活
完整生平1967
“Half-A-Wind Show” at Lisson Gallery
After they meet, Ono starts writing to Lennon and sending him her conceptual artworks, and soon the two are corresponding. In September 1967 Lennon sponsors her solo “Half-A-Wind Show” at Lisson Gallery in London.
May 1968
The night of “Two Virgins”
While Lennon’s wife is on holiday in Greece, he invites Ono over; they spend the night recording avant-garde tape loops and, by Lennon’s account, make love at dawn. The recordings become their first collaborative album, “Unfinished Music No. 1: Two Virgins”, whose cover notoriously carries an unretouched photograph of the pair nude.
1969
A “bed-in” for peace in Amsterdam
After their wedding in Gibraltar, Lennon and Ono spend their honeymoon in Amsterdam, turning it into a week-long “bed-in” for peace and against the Vietnam War.
26 May – 2 June 1969
The Montreal “bed-in”: “Give Peace a Chance”
Denied entry to the United States, where they had planned another bed-in, Lennon and Ono hold one at the Queen Elizabeth Hotel in Montreal, where they record “Give Peace a Chance”.
July 1969
The birth of the Plastic Ono Band
Lennon and Ono decide to release their newer, more personal work under a band of their own, the Plastic Ono Band; the name goes back to their 1968 conceptual art project, which Ono had first conceived in 1967 as an art exhibition in Berlin. The first release credited to it is the single “Give Peace a Chance”, backed by Ono’s “Remember Love”.
1971
Custody battle: Cox takes Kyoko away
During a 1971 custody battle Cox disappears with their eight-year-old daughter and later wins custody, claiming that Ono is an unfit mother. He renames Kyoko “Ruth Holman” and raises her in an organisation known as the Church of the Living Word; Ono and Lennon search for her for years, to no avail.
