NOTA | ARTICLE

MEETING WITH MARINA ABRAMOVIĆ The artist will make a public presentation in a dialogue with Andrea Giunta. April 27th | 6 PM | Centro de Arte Experimental UNSAM Sánchez de Bustamante 75. Free admission

Abramović method AThroughout her practice, Abramović has been blurring the lines between the observer and the observed as they pertain to performance. Traditionally the performer would be observed and the public would be the observers. Switching those roles and asking the public to participate in the action and therefore to be the observed, provides an opportunity to have a personal experience in a long durational performance. The artist developed the Abramović Method to give the public the opportunity to be free from the constant distractions of our modern world and to be quiet and connected with the present moment. The exercises presented during this workshop are part of the Abramović Method. Participants will stay in the space for as long as they want, allowing them time to be with themselves and to experience the calmness and the rare feeling of being free from responsibility. If the public can honor their commitment to themselves and remain focused and internal for this period of time, the simplicity of these exercises allows for the clarity and connection that we often lack in our lives. April 28th and 29th|10 AM to 6 PM Centro de Arte Experimental UNSAM | Sánchez de Bustamante 75 Free admission for people aged 14 and over | No previous enrollment required and participants will be admitted at any time (subject to venue capacity) and allowed to stay in the space for as long as they want. •
