Marina Abramovic: Drawings 1963–2017 Published by Walther König, Köln.
Edited by Tone Hansen, Lars Mřrch Finborud. Text by Tone Hansen. The performances of Marina Abramovic (born 1946) have pushed the boundaries of self-discovery for both artist and audience, marking radical engagements with time, stillness, energy and pain—from Rhythm 0 (1974), in which the artist offered herself up as an object of violent experimentation for the audience, to The Artist Is Present (2010), a performance with a three-month duration. These groundbreaking performances often began their life as drawings and notes, an aspect of the artist's work that has previously been overlooked. Marina Abramovic: Drawings 1963–2017 presents more than 50 years of drawings, sketches, thoughts, dreams and ideas produced in the artist's hand, offering intimate insights into Abramovic's methods, processes and ideas.
