'Seeds of ideas, like pebbles, were raining through my life. Genesis Publications has captured those seeds and presented them to you here, for your observation, selection and experimentation, to make their destination entirely yours.' - Yoko Ono

YOKO ONO INFINITE UNIVERSE AT DAWN brings together Yoko Ono's work for the first time: from her Avant-garde initiatives, through her creative collaboration with John Lennon, to her continuing film, music, art and peace campaigns.

'I'm one of those people you might think of as a jack-of-all-trades. I don't limit myself to one medium. Sometimes inspiration comes in as music; sometimes it comes in as visual.' - Yoko Ono

Over 20,000 words - all Yoko's own words, in lyrics, essays, statements and quotes; 600 iconic and unseen photographs from the artist's own archives; and 45 hand-pasted items tipped into the book's 400 pages create YOKO ONO INFINITE UNIVERSE AT DAWN.

'INFINITE UNIVERSE AT DAWN is essential looking, breathing and contemplating ... a great reminder of Yoko Ono's depth and vision.' - Musician, Artist and Author Kim Gordon

YOKO ONO INFINITE UNIVERSE AT DAWN is hand-bound in soft-grain leather, with a die-cut 'A Hole To See The Sky Through'. The book's pages are edged in silver foil and housed in an embossed slipcase. Each of the 1,500 books in the limited edition comes with a removable jigsaw piece. If all the people who bought a book put their pieces together, it would form a complete picture of the sky. In this way, each reader can take home 'A Piece of Sky' and become a part of Yoko Ono's global participatory project.

'This then, will be your first voyage made intentionally to create your own conceptual world. Have fun.' - Yoko Ono

Yoko Ono's book is available to view and pre-order now at www.YokoBook.com
