YOKO ONO — RIVER TO RIVER FESTIVAL

Yoko Ono’s River to River Festival installations—THE REFLECTION PROJECT and ADD COLOR (REFUGEE BOAT) (1960/2019)—comprise the largest public exhibition of the artist’s work in Lower Manhattan to date.

THE REFLECTION PROJECT is a visual and mnemonic counterpoint to the relentless pace of the everyday, an invitation to connect passersby to moments of personal, meditative pause through the placement of art in non-traditional spaces. Featuring Yoko Ono as the inaugural artist, THE REFLECTION PROJECT seeks to perform urban acupuncture with large-scale art, stimulating the city’s vast nerve network… Each piece is a prompt wherein Ono speaks directly to New Yorkers, rallying the collective consciousness towards heightened awareness, hope and action.”*
