For the first time ever, all of their collaborative projects are brought together in one place. The exhibition goes beyond simply presenting art and documentation of their projects; In addition to showing their joint artistic practice it also includes material from their shared life — documents, written agreements with institutions, personal correspondence between the artists, photographs, and even playlists of the music they listened to. The exhibition will be on view until May 3, 2026.

Marina Abramović is one of our greatest living artists: an art world icon and a performance art pioneer. In 2023, Marina presented her solo exhibition After Life at the Royal Academy and became the first female artist in the institution’s 250-year history to fill the entire gallery space with her art. Will Gompertz was joined by Sotheby’s Marina Ruiz Colomer and Marina Abramović for a conversation about her life and work, and what it means to be a female artist more broadly.

This is A Closer Look With... Every episode, we get to know an artist whose work is presented at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. Today we're taking a closer look at the work of Marina Abramović. Marina Abramović has been a prominent figure in performance and body art since the 1970s and is considered one of the founders of this art form. She brought performance art from its experimental beginnings into the mainstream. What does she think of Amsterdam, what is it like for her to see other people perform her work, and does she believe in the afterlife? You'll hear it in A Closer Look With. You can visit the exhibition until July 14, 2024. Host: Emma Harjadi Herman Producer: Margita van Vugt Editorial advisor: Katinka Baehr Editor: Jan Schenk Music: Rik Elstgeest Design: Meeusontwerpt Hosted on Acast.

Properly weird performance at Southbank Centre and we loved every second. Peeling potatoes, chucking nails, melting ice, cutting plasterboard, the works. We chat meeting the big M herself and what we found in the nooks and crannies of the Southbank. Bellissimo! Here's what we saw: Marina Abramović Institute Takeover The entire Queen Elizabeth Hall – backstage and all – transforms into the set for enthralling durational performances, curated by conceptual artist Marina Abramović and MAI. The performances use the entirety of the Queen Elizabeth Hall, and is self-led, letting you explore all parts of the building, including the auditorium, Purcell Room, backstage dressing rooms, green rooms, technical spaces and foyer. The artists have all been invited to make site-specific, long-durational work. They engage with endurance, presence and participation, creating an infinite possibility of encounters between visitors and artists. The artists featured are Collective Absentia, Carla Adra, Cassils, Paula Garcia, Miles Greenberg, Sandra Johnston, Carlos Martiel, Yiannis Pappas, Paul Setúbal, Aleksandar Timotic and Despina Zacharopoulou. 🎙 We’re Short Supply and this is BANG ON THE MOVE - the series for our podcast BANG ON where we visit a show and invite you to the pub chat afterwards. In this series, we are out of the studio, visiting exhibitions and events across the UK, and letting you know what we make of them. Yep, you might say this podcast is BANG ON - let's get stuck in!!!

For International Women’s Day 2021, The Last Bohemians returns with a special lockdown episode, supported by KLORIS , starring Marina Abramović: the groundbreaking Serbian artist and self-described "godmother of performance art" who has spent the past 50 years confronting the mental and physical limits of the body and using it as a powerful canvas. Her early work in the 1970s is famed for its extremity, with pieces where she would cut the communist star into her stomach or invite an audience to use weapons on her if they pleased. It was a radical thread she continued when she teamed up with Ulay, her one-time creative collaborator and former lover, who passed away just before the pandemic struck in 2020. Their final piece together in 1988, where they each walked from one end of The Great Wall of China and met in the middle, is one of the most elaborate break-ups of all time. Since then, Abramović, 74, has become known for intertwining performance art with spirituality, shamanism and pop culture: she trained Lady Gaga in her ‘Marina Abramović Method’, starred in a Jay-Z video and turned her attentions to durational works. These feats of endurance include her infamous piece The Artist is Present, at the MoMa in New York in 2010, where she spent some 700 hours sitting silently across a table from spectators – over 1,500 people came to sit opposite her. Many of them were moved to tears, though critics have accused her over the years of being an exhibitionist and a narcissist. In this interview, conducted via Zoom from her home in upstate New York at the start of 2021, Abramović talks about creative fearlessness, the importance of failure and taking risks, why she never had children, why we should be hugging trees and what she has in common with the opera singer Maria Callas, on whom she has based her own mixed-media performance (and which will return to the stage later this year following its pre-pandemic premiere last April). A retrospective of her life's work , meanwhile – her first major exhibition in the UK – will now be showing in 2023.
