Marina Abramovic



Marina Abramović (Serbian Cyrillic: Марина Абрамовић; born November 30, 1946) is a Serbian[1][2][3] and formerYugoslav artist based in New York, a performance artist who began her career in the early 1970s. Her work explores the relationship between performer and audience, the limits of the body, and the possibilities of the mind. Active for over three decades, she has been described as the "grandmother of performance art." She pioneered a new notion of identity by bringing in the participation of her observers. Her art focuses on the theme of “confronting pain, blood, and physical limits of the body,” [4] while relying on the extent of these discomforts based on the actions of her audience members.


The Artist is Present
I really like this exhibition, she just sitting there waiting for the people sit in front of her, she doesn't know who is going to be there. I think the feeling must be interesting. Everyone got different feeling just be looking at her too. 

This is the video link for the part of the exhibition
