Yoko Ono's achievements span multiple disciplines, marking her as a true polymath of the 20th and 21st centuries. She is the only artist to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice, once as part of The Beatles and once as a solo artist. Her Grammy win for Album of the Year for Double Fantasy remains a rare feat for an experimental artist. She was among the first women to receive serious critical attention for conceptual art, paving the way for future generations. Her peace activism through the Bed-Ins created a new model for celebrity engagement with social causes.
