Marina Abramovic, artist and art
Born 1946, Birth Belgrad, Jugoslavia.
The artist lives and works in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Throughout her 30-year career, Abramovic has used her body as her primary material, pushing it to extremes of altered consciousness, often putting herself in great physical peril. Her concern with creating works that ritualize the simple actions of everyday life like lying, sitting, dreaming and thinking focuses, in effect, on the manifestation of a unique mental state.
