Film:
Marina Abramovic The Artist is Present
Marina has been redefining what performing art is for 40 years using her body as the vehicle.
This film follows the artist as she prepares for an important milestone in her life through a major retrospective of her work at MOMA, New York.
The interviews with her are very reflective and insightful and a chance for her to respond to a question she must have been hearing for many years... 'But why is this art?"
