Marina Abramović. Walk Through Walls.

Book Review.

Performance art is a difficult genre, and not only from the legal perspective. I must admit I was never a fan of it. Therefore, up until recently I knew merely about the existence of a performance artist Marina Abramović and could name a few of her iconic pieces. Not more than that. Moreover, I was not even interested to learn more. However, then I stumbled upon her TED talk and as prompted looked into her eyes for 2 minutes[1]... That intrigued me to get to know the artist better, so I got my hands on her memoir “Walk Through Walls”. 

Long story short, this was is an honest, fascinating and insightful story of a woman, whose life embraced the wildest adventures imaginable, historic encounters and truly one of a kind artistic experiments. It is surely one of the best books I have read recently. 

In the book, Marina Abramović talks both about her life with all its hurdles and achievements, and about her art, which reflected all that richness of experience. In fact, after reading the book I felt I became more intimately acquainted with the artist. I am still not a fan of performance art in general, but I do find some of the pieces by Marina Abramović to be mind-blowing.

Take Rhythm 0, for example, when Abramović was standing still for six hours, while the audience could do to her whatever they pleased, using one of the 72 objects lying on a table (from an innocent feather to a gun with one bullet). This piece exploring how far the public could go would still be relevant and timely nowadays, yet it was performed as early as in... 1974. How could an artist conceive such a timeless piece when performance art was at its infancy? The "Walk Through Walls" gives a glimpse into the early life of Marina Abramović, her thoughts, influences, fears, and hopes, all those experiences which made her herself: as a person and as an artist. That might give a clue to the answer.

Another piece by Abramović, which I find amazing, even though very disturbing, is Balkan Baroque[2]. For this piece, the artist made a compilation of several elements: interviews with her parents, a video telling a story of the rat-catcher told by Abramović dressed as a doctor, then her switching into a sexy dancer, dancing to the Balkan rhythms. All this was happening in the background, while in the front, the artist was sitting dressed in white on top of the pile of cow bones and was persistently cleaning them for seven hours a day. Highly disturbing. At the same time, it is extremely powerful imagery denouncing the Balkan war, or any other war for that matter. “You can’t wash the blood from your hands as you can’t wash the shame from the war.” For this piece Abramović got awarded a Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale in 1997. The story of coming into being of this performance also finds its place on the pages of "Walk Through Walls". 

Finally, of course, The Artist is Present, the seminal performance piece from the MoMA show of 2010 with the same name. In Marina Abramović’s own words this piece has changed her life. I bet! For three months she was sitting in the middle of the atrium at MoMA for 8 hours a day (10 hours on Friday) looking into the eyes of visitors who came to sit on an empty chair in front of her. The memoir describes the origin of this performance, touches upon the insane preparation the artist had to go through for it and the feelings and thoughts she had in the process and beyond. 

Marina Abramović undoubtedly had (and luckily still has) an extraordinary life with enough experiences to fill up many. Her memoir "Walk Through Walls” invites a reader for an intimate walk with the artist through some of her life journeys, shares her inspirations and struggles, moments of pain and love. This is a true page-turner, which will be an interesting read not only for art aficionados and the artist’s fans but for the general public alike.

HOW I GOT MY HUSBAND BACK FROM ANOTHER WOMAN WHO HAD SPELLED HIM.

I want to thank Priest Alaska for what he has done for me and my family. I was going through a terrible situation. The problem started when my husband came home from work and I noticed his personality had changed. A few months later, he told me he was no longer interested in marriage. I love my husband very much, but all my efforts to win him back were in vain. I had come to the conclusion that my husband would never return. However, I saw comments online about Priest Alaska and how he had helped others in various ways. So, my hope of getting my husband back increased, and I contacted him to tell him about my problem. He told me it was nothing serious, to relax, and that in 48 hours my husband would come home on his own. I never believed Priest Alaska because I had heard about spiritual powers, but I didn't believe they worked. To my great surprise, I saw my husband through the window and ran out to meet him. He was crying, saying he didn't know what had happened to him after seeing another woman outside of our marriage. I was so happy, and I promise to tell everyone about the great and powerful Alaska Spellcaster Priest, who brought joy back into my life. Here is the Priest's contact information: WhatsApp: +233 59 274 5728 Email: [email protected]

Honestly, I didn't know where to turn after losing my Bitcoin in an online scam. I was frustrated and unsure of the next steps, so I contacted WEB WIZARD CRYPTO RECOVERY EXPERTS. They took the time to listen to what happened, reviewed the transaction details I had, and explained the investigation process in a way I could understand. I appreciated their professionalism and straightforwardness throughout the entire process, especially when they explained what could realistically be investigated. I am very happy to have successfully recovered my Bitcoin. The experience gave me a much clearer understanding of my case.

These records can provide investigators with valuable information when reconstructing the movement of digital assets. For victims of fraudulent DAO schemes, preserving transaction information and reporting the incident promptly can be important. Blockchain tracing does not guarantee that stolen cryptocurrency will be recovered, but it can help establish an evidence trail that may support further investigation, exchange intervention, legal proceedings, or law-enforcement action.
