“I had experienced absolute freedom—I had felt that my body was without boundaries, limitless; that pain didn’t matter, that nothing mattered at all—and it intoxicated me.”
In 2010, more than 750,000 people stood in line at Marina Abramović’s MoMA retrospective for the chance to sit across from her and communicate with her nonverbally in an unprecedented durational performance that lasted more than 700 hours. This celebration of nearly fifty years of groundbreaking performance art demonstrated once again that Marina Abramović is truly a force of nature.
The child of Communist war-hero parents under Tito’s regime in postwar Yugoslavia, she was raised with a relentless work ethic. Even as she was beginning to build an international artistic career, Marina lived at home under her mother’s abusive control, strictly obeying a 10 p.m. curfew. But nothing could quell her insatiable curiosity, her desire to connect with people, or her distinctly Balkan sense of humor—all of which informs her art and her life. The beating heart of Walk Through Walls is an operatic love story—a twelve-year collaboration with fellow performance artist Ulay, much of which was spent penniless in a van traveling across Europe—a relationship that began to unravel and came to a dramatic end atop the Great Wall of China.
Marina’s story, by turns moving, epic, and dryly funny, informs an incomparable artistic career that involves pushing her body past the limits of fear, pain, exhaustion, and danger in an uncompromising quest for emotional and spiritual transformation. A remarkable work of performance in its own right, Walk Through Walls is a vivid and powerful rendering of the unparalleled life of an extraordinary artist.
##Marina与Ulay分开后反复强调一个艺术家不该爱上另一个艺术家,究其根本,她遇到的两位,Ulay和Paolo,都从未在艺术领域与她势均力敌过。她就像一个母亲,不仅仅在行为艺术的表演中滋养着他们,更是在经济上供养着他们的现在和未来,而他们跟另一个女人离开和她的肝肠寸断都是必然,有哪个孩子会和母亲度过余生呢,母子分离,最痛的也一定是母亲。每次了解一位留名艺术史的艺术家的一生都会被她们狂浪一般的生命力所震撼,源源不断的想象力,从不停歇的创造,一直燃到生命的最后一刻。 Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

评分I knew next to nothing about her before i read this book, now i adore her, though it's a one-sided story. At times, i forgot she's human, especially in the piece "The Artist is Present", she was releasing people's pain, almost as if she was Green Tara like when she imagined herself to be in the Tushita monastery.
