Concert For Yoko Ono, Washington And The World

A celebration of Yoko Ono’s music

Former Sonic Youth bassist / vocalist Kim Gordon performed at the Concert For Yoko Ono, Washington And The World on Sunday night (9/17/17).

The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden presented the Concert for Yoko Ono, Washington and the World, a one-night-only celebration of the artist’s pioneering experimental sound and performance art. The  event was the culmination of Yoko Ono: Four Works for Washington and the World, a summer-long series of Ono’s iconic work that commemorates the 10th anniversary of the artist’s Wish Tree for Washington, D.C.

The concert featured a lineup of groundbreaking female musicians—Kim Gordon, Lizzi Bougatsos and Moor Mother—who presented their own works alongside some of Ono’s most memorable pieces from the 1960s and beyond.
