MARINA ABRAMOVIC - THE ARTIST IS PRESENT
BIESENBACH, KLAUS
Since the beginning of her career, in Belgrade in the late 1960s, Marina Abramovi has been a pioneer of performance art, creating some of the most important works in the field. This catalogue documents approximately fifty of the artist's ephemeral time- and media-based works from throughout her career, including re-creations by other performers and a new work performed by the artist for the exhibition. The volume spans more than four decades of Abramovi?'s interventions, sound pieces, video works, installations, photographs, and solo performances as well as her collaborative performances with the German artist Ulay (Uwe Laysiepen).
An accompanying CD with audio commentary by Abramovi guides the reader through the book. Includes 345 images.
