Yes, the Fish MusicThe Beatles – s/t (aka. White Album, 1968)
Yoko Ono – Add Color Painting (canvas, wood, chair, paints, paintbrush, 1966!):
nähere Info:
In September 1966 Yoko Ono travelled to London to participate in the Destruction In Art Symposium (DIAS), organised by Gustav Metzger, presenting her ideas in public lectures and performances, and private conversations during the month-long event.Through Mario Amaya, the editor of Art & Artists, Ono met John Dunbar and was offered an exhibition at Indica. The new work was cool and non-emotive. Empty white surfaces whose size and relationship to the wall marked them unmistakably as paintings. Or, ‘paintings-to-be’, since all the works at Indica were listed as “unfinished”, including ‘Add Colour Painting’, wood panels with cutout perspex covering, brushes, and paints. Blank, white, and waiting, these paintings were an open invitation.
An installation of mostly white and transparent objects, the Indica show was in many ways her most cohesive of the decade, both visually and conceptually.

Und war möglicherweise Barnett Newmann der Vorläufer für das weisse Album ?
