October 9, 2008toOctober 12, 2008 NEW YORK (AP) ― When it comes to members of the Beatles, even doodles are a treasure. John Lennon’s doodles and drawings — some erotic — will be on display at a downtown Manhattan gallery starting Thursday evening, on what would have been Lennon’s 68th birthday. More than 100 Lennon works will be on display at the Openhouse Gallery in SoHo form a show called “Imagine Peace.” A controversial series of lithographs called “Bag One” — depicting scenes from Le
On December 8, 1980, four deafening shots rang out into the night of New York City’s streets, sending out a startling echo that would change the musical world forever. Music legend, John Lennon lay dead in the arms of his lover, Yoko Ono, as she wept with the world over the loss of the former Beatle. Without much deliberation or emotion, Mark Chapman had murdered the man who had sought to change the earth into a peaceful place with his powerful lyrics and melodies. If that fateful day had
After both the state and federal courts rejected the attempts of Yoko Ono Lennon and EMI Records to enjoin the showing of Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed on the ground it used a 15-second fragment of John Lennon's Imagine, all of the plaintiffs in both cases have now withdrawn their claims and dismissed their cases. Bad for evolution, but probably good for the fair use doctrine. Here's some details. Read the comments on this post...
Imagine It: Yoko Ono No Longer Suing 'Expelled' Who knew that professional nerd Ben Stein was capable of being such a shit stirrer? His latest entertainment provocation is Expelled: No Intelligence, with its tagline: "Every generation has its rebel". The film is a bit of a Michael Moore-type "documentary" where Stein goes around and riles people up in his investigation into whether "intelligent design" is a pseudo-science. But the filmmakers committed a major no-no by using and critiquing a 15
In commemoration of what would have been John Lennon's 68th birthday, Yoko Ono has brought the "Imagine Peace" exhibit to SoHo this month. Featuring over one hundred hand signed prints of drawings done by Lennon from 1968-1980 (some of them softly colorized in the meantime by Yoko Ono), th...
A dismissal motion filed Oct. 6 in a New York state court should end a two-pronged legal attack against Premise Media that involved Capitol Records, EMI Records, John Lennon’s widow Yoko Ono and his sons, Julian and Sean. Premise is resolving the claims with a little help from its friends: Dallas lawyers April R. Terry and Roy Harden (pictured). The two nearly identical suits, filed in state court and in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, sought to enjoin distribut

Last night (on what would have been his 68th birthday), the Openhouse Gallery in SoHo opened their exhibit "Imagine Peace," displaying over 100 of John Lennon's drawings. The installation will be around through the weekend, and it'll cost you $2 to get in, with the money going towards City Meals-on-Wheels. Featuring "Lennon’s characteristic drawings in hand-signed pieces and limited edition prints, as well as serigraphs, lithographs, copper etchings and aqua tints," some of the collection has

Have you ever eaten an apple and found a worm inside? Have you ever stopped to smell a beautiful flower, only to get stung by a bee? Have you ever found yourself in a state of physical bliss and spiritual harmony as your soul ascends to heaven on a cloud of love and peace, and then god punches you in the face, you fall down to Earth, land in a pile of shit, and are brutally gang-raped by a pack of rabid huskies and their Inuit masters? That’s Yoko. Here we have John Lennon and Frank Zappa perfor
In the autumn of 2006, Sharifah Amani and I were invited to attend a festival called "Paris Cinema". They were screening a retrospective of my films, and therefore offered to sponsor our flight and accommodation so we could attend the Q&A sessions. While we were there, we met a sweet smiling Japanese gentleman by the name of Kousuke Ono. (Believe it or not, he is the nephew of Yoko Ono, and was about to rush off to have tea with his cousin Sean Lennon when we first met!) One evening over

Today would have been John Lennon’s 68th birthday! Aside from being the most famous former Beatle, John was a passionate fine artist. In honor of his 68th, enjoy some of his scandalous erotic drawings, which were banned in the 70s, and two never-before-seen pieces: Karmic Wheel and He Tried to Consult the Stars. They are now on display at the “Imagine Peace” show at the OpenHouse Gallery in New York City. [Photo: copyright Yoko Ono] Although often referred to as a "menage a trois," in this

Thought this discussion on Fair Use and what people have to do to exercse that right was interesting, as it draws similar parallels to what many must go through to exercise their 2A and Art. 1, Sec. 21 rights.
