Short Biography
Marina Abramović (Serbian Cyrillic: Марина Абрамовић, born November 30, 1946) is a Serbian performance artist based in New York. Her work explores the relationship between performer and audience, the limits of the body, and the possibilities of the mind. Active for over three decades, Abramović has been described as the "grandmother of performance art." She pioneered a new notion of identity by bringing in the participation of observers, focusing on "confronting pain, blood, and physical limits of the body." She is represented by the Sean Kelly Gallery in New York.
