Yoko Ono's "Our Beautiful Daughters" Celebrates Women And Peace In New Delhi (PHOTOS)

Yoko Ono has been an activist for love, feminism, peace and artistic exploration since the early 1960s. In honor of the beginning of National Women's History Month, we are proud to feature her work on our page.Ono is famous for her romance and collaborations with John Lennon, and though most know her name few are really familiar with her work. (And no, her epic Rolling Stones cover doesn't count.)The artist, who recently celebrated her 79th birthday, is associated with the Fluxus art movement, which blended different media and disciplines, although she always remained an independent artist. Her work in the 60s and 70s arguably helped precipitate New Wave music and the avant-garde as we know it today. She made great strides in the progress of experimental poetry, film, music and art, all while being a worldwide muse.
