Marina Abramovic: Drawings 1963–2017

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.
