Marina Abramović
Marina Abramović is known worldwide for her provocative performances and pièces that transcend, sometimes dramatically, the dualism of body and soul, artist and individual.
Offering herself as an instrument of experimentation for the viewers, Abramović has reconfigured the thresholds of physical and psychological pain and resistance.
She was born in Belgrade, former Yugoslavia, on 30 November 1946, to a wealthy family, and spent her childhood with her grandmother, Milica, being strongly influenced by her deep Orthodox faith.
For many years, Marina was far from her parents Vojo and Danica, partisans during the Second World War, at that time involved in the leadership of General Tito's Communist Party. She only returned to live with them in 1952, the year her brother Velimir was born.
Despite a tumultuous relationship with her mother, since childhood she found a safe space in her love of art, particularly drawing and painting.
