Telephone Piece (performance art; Yoko Ono (Japanese-American conceptual artist, born 1933); 2006-2007)

Note: An iteration of Ono's performance piece, realized for the exhibition "Grapefruit" at the Berkeley Art Museum October 18, 2006–April 1, 2007. An analog telephone was set up in the museum gallery, and the artist would call and unspecified times. Visitors would answer, providing direct contact between the artist and her audience. The encounter, including the reaction of the visitor and other people in the room, comprised the performance.
