Walk Through Walls

Autor Marina Abramovic
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 mar 2018
'Her bravest work of performance art to date . . . Rawly intimate'Observer
This memoir spans Marina Abramovic's five decade career, and tells a life story that is almost as exhilarating and extraordinary as her groundbreaking performance art. Taking us from her early life in communist ex-Yugoslavia, to her time as a young art student in Belgrade in the 1970s, where she first made her mark with a series of pieces that used the body as a canvas, the book also describes her relationship with the West German performance artist named Ulay who was her lover and sole collaborator for 12 years.
Abramovic has collaborated with stars from Lady Gaga to Jay-Z, James Franco and Willem Dafoe. Best known for her recent pieces 'The Artist is Present' and '512 Hours', this book is a fascinating insight into the life of one of the most important artists working today, and the woman who has been described as 'the grandmother of performance art'.

Marina has lived like anunstoppable force of nature, with the kind ofpowerthat leaves me feelingbreathlessanddisquieted-while at the same timeprofoundly impressed,awed, andinspired. As I turn the pages of her book, I hear her voice in my head, as if she were actually narrating the words. . . Her voice issoothing,calm, andcentered. It belies thetrauma,fear, anddarknesscoiled at the root of her impulse toexpressandexpunge.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

'Rawly intimate and weirdly mesmeric. Could this be her bravest work of performance art to date?' Observer
'A page-turner. Shocking, genuinely moving, always coruscatingly honest. Abramovic exposes herself as provocatively and fearlessly in language as she has done in her largely performance art' Elle
Performance artist Marina Abramovic has spent her life walking through walls - barriers of pain, endurance, acceptability and, above all, art and life. In this extraordinary memoir she tells her story from her severe, abusive childhood in post-war Yugoslavia to the daring and controversial acts of performance that have stunned audiences and won international acclaim. Exploring how her extreme commitment to the moment is the secret to her art and success, Walk Through Walls reveals how she became one of the most important living artists in the world.
'Abramovic confesses, confides, complains, instructs and reflects with intelligence and humour on her difficult but ultimately magical life and liberating work' Willem Dafoe
'Compelling, admirable, unforgiving' The Times Literary Supplement

'Engaging, valuable, enjoyable' Deborah Levy, Guardian
'Beautiful, panoramic, touching, deep' Laurie Anderson
