Rebel Notes: Catatan Seniman Pemberontak
Dari sekian catatan yang tertulis, ada satu kata yang sangat dekat dengan kesenian; “perlawanan”. Steven Spielberg menggunakan montase ruang tiga dimensi untuk mengungkap fakta holocoust, menghisap ganja bersama Tuhan dipilih Bob Marley, tapi Jim Morisson, lewat The Doors-nya, menolak dianggap sebagai pembebas. Mereka berkarya pada masanya, dan perlawanan abadi selamanya. Seni melampaui bentuk ‘seni’ itu sendiri. Ia berdiri dan menembus kehidupan sosial-ekonomi-politik.
Rebel Notes adalah rampaian yang terserak di tengah karya megah seniman-seniman dunia. Mereka tidak hanya berkutat dengan kuas, tubuh, dan microphone untuk membuat wujud estetik. Lebih dari itu, ada gagasan pemberontakan terhadap permasalahan dunia. Catatan ini menjadi bentuk refleksi dari karya yang mendorong perubahan sosial.
Ditulis oleh John Lennon, Kurt Cobain, Andy Warhol, Bob Dylan, Bob Marley, Elvis Presley, Jimi Hendrix, Jean Michael Basquiat, James Dean, Jim Morrison, Bono, Yoko Ono, Oliver Stone, Steven Spielberg, Marilyn Monroe, Pablo Picasso, Thom Yorke.

About the author
John Lennon
764 books1,973 followersJohn Winston Ono Lennon, MBE, was an English singer-songwriter who rose to worldwide fame as one of the founding members of The Beatles, and together with Paul McCartney formed one of the most successful songwriting partnerships of the 20th century.
Born and raised in Liverpool, Lennon became involved in the skiffle craze as a teenager, his first band, The Quarrymen, evolving into The Beatles in 1960. As the group began to undergo the disintegration that led to their break-up towards the end of that decade, Lennon launched a solo career that would span the next decade, punctuated by critically acclaimed albums, including John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band and Imagine, and iconic songs such as "Give Peace a Chance" and "Imagine".
Lennon revealed a rebellious nature and acerbic wit in his music, his writing, on film, and in interviews, and became controversial through his work as a peace activist. He moved to New York City in 1971, where his criticism of the Vietnam War resulted in a lengthy attempt by Richard Nixon's administration to deport him, while his songs were adapted as anthems by the anti-war movement. Disengaging himself from the music business in 1975 to devote time to his family, Lennon reemerged in October 1980 with a new single and a comeback album, Double Fantasy, but was murdered weeks after their release on the sidewalk outside his home in the Dakota. Ironically, "Imagine" (imagine all the people, living life in peace) was a featured cut from this album.
Lennon's album sales in the United States alone stand at 14 million units, and as performer, writer, or co-writer he is responsible for 27 number one singles on the US Hot 100 chart. In 2002, a BBC poll on the 100 Greatest Britons voted him eighth, and in 2008 Rolling Stone ranked him the fifth greatest singer of all time. He was posthumously inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1987 and into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994.

judul dan covernya terlampau menarik yg mengakibatkan ekspektasi tinggi ketikan sebelum membacanya. Sayangnya ekspektasi itu tidak terpenuhi dengan baik. Pengisahan yang lompat-lompat dan pesan "rebel" yang relatif dipaksakan.
