Yoko Ono

As a major retrospective opens in London, we take a rearview of one of her most iconic works 

From Paul Mpagi Sepuya's self-reflective portraiture to Jan Gatewood's anthropomorphic rabbits

A new show at Tate Modern reminds us of the impact she made and the possibilities she opened for other artists, from Marina Abramović to Brian Eno

From the postponed Lagos Biennial to the first career retrospective of architect I.M. Pei at M+ in Hong Kong, these are the top picks for the year ahead

The author's debut book, Which As You Know Means Violence, reveals the politics of self-injury in performance art and contemporary culture

From Heman Chong’s wry humour in Singapore to Lee Bul’s ‘soft sculpture’ performances in Seoul, these are the must-see shows in the region 

‘Have You Seen a Horizon Lately?’ feels like a hauntingly apposite question for these dark times

The artist creates a specially commissioned work for frieze in response to Yoko Ono’s legendary 1965 performance ‘Cut Piece’

The stone was taken from the artist’s installation The Riverbed at Toronto’s Gardiner Museum
