Yoko Ono 'Cockroach' art bugs to Moscow

Life through the eyes of a cockroach is the theme of a Yoko Ono exhibition in Moscow that is part of the city's Second Contemporary Art Biennale.

The Odyssey of a Cockroach exhibit by the widow of John Lennon is to run May 30-June 24, Russian curators told RIA Novosti Monday.

The show's billboard-size color photographs and larger-than-life sculptures are arranged to present modern urban life through the eyes of a cockroach.

Explaining the exhibit, Ono told RIA Novosti, I have taken various pictures of the city's corners and presented them from a cockroach's point of view. Through the eyes of this other strong race, we may learn the true reality of what our dreams and nightmares have created.
