Named after "Grapefruit" (1964), Yoko Ono's collection of artistic instructions, the fanzine "grapefruits", founded in Düsseldorf, deals with composition and sound art from a feminist perspective. On the occasion of the exhibition YOKO ONO. MUSIC OF THE MIND exhibition, a special edition of the magazine will be published that looks at works by Yoko Ono and artistic positions influenced by her.
On Saturday, February 22, 2025, the grapefruits team will present an all-day music and performance program at K20 that links Yoko Ono's thoughts and works with various perspectives from contemporary art and music.
