2/4: Marina Abramović


Marina's collab with the brilliant performance artist Ulay for 12 years again gave us legendary performances and theories in form.

They created "relation works" characterized by time, space and movement which holds greater meaning than it seems to be through a layman's eyes. Between 1981 and 1987, the pair performed Night-sea Crossing in twenty-two performances. They sat silently across from each other in chairs for seven hours a day.


Their pair used to be so appealing, people loved them together, and it was even more obvious when after more than 20 years they met in between of Marina's ongoing performance. I would put up the video of the same in the coming post for this series.
