Yoko Ono : Instructions For Paintings, May 24, 1962

Very Good + square softcover, unpaginated, 20 x 20 cm. Black and white images — photos by George Maciunas — from 1961– throughout. Published for an exhibition of Ono’s paintings which took place in May, 1962. A bit of discoloration to cover. From the library of Jill Johnston, with her stamp in blue ink on the last page reading “Write first, then live” JJ….. The late great Jill Johnston (1929-2010) was a radical cultural critic, lesbian feminist, provacateur and champion of avant-gardes. She and Ono were friends. Beautiful catalogue, and scarce.
