About the Item

Marina Abramović A Visual Biography (Hand signed by BOTH Marina Abramovic and Katya Tylevich), 2023 Large (huge!) hardback monograph with no dust jacket as issued Hand signed by BOTH Marina Abramovic and Katya Tylevich and inscribed by Marina "With Love" 12 × 9 × 2 inches Hand signed by BOTH Marina Abramovic and Katya Tylevich on the first front end page after a limited attendance lecture with admission and book fee at Barnes and Noble bookshop in Manhattan This is a substantial monograph; makes an excellent gift Publisher's blurb: The definitive guide to the life and work of Marina Abramovic, the world's most famous performance artist. Combining brand-new interviews, never-before-seen images and fascinating ephemera, this book is a testament to the extraordinary life and work of one of our most courageous and groundbreaking artists, and is published to coincide with the opening of Abramovic's Royal Academy exhibition - the first major show by a female artist in the Academy's 255-year history. Agreeing to answer any question that was posed, Abramovic embarked on 17 months of candid interviews conducted by her friend and confidante, Katya Tylevich. The result is a monolithic retrospective that takes us from the humble beginnings of a shy child sitting at the back of the class, to fearless pioneer, conquering and subverting the art world with boundary-pushing performances, and concluding with her most profound personal experience to date. Over 600 images from Abramovic's personal archives set these captivating memories alight, creating a fascinating, visual landscape and demonstrating the inextricably intertwined nature of her life and work. A breathtakingly intimate journey, we are led across deserts, oceans and cities to explore extreme highs and lows, all the while marvelling at how Abramovic approaches every success and setback with her signature humour and wit. Never shying away from the truth, no stone is left unturned, and Abramovic's fearlessness imbues every page. Editorial Reviews: "Tylevich provides readers with an up-close look at both the life of the artist and the expressive, enigmatic mind behind the art. This captivates." – Publishers Weekly "A beautifully prepared coffee table book, this moving volume is truly what it says it is. With sparse text and full-page images, Abramovic has told her story in an experiential way, which I'd expect from a performance artist." – Whitehot Magazine Book information: Publisher: Laurence King Publishing, November 28th, 2023 English; Hardback; 496 pages with color and bw illustrations About Marina Abramovic: Marina Abramović (Serbian Cyrillic: Марина Абрамовић, pronounced [marǐːna abrǎːmoʋitɕ]; born November 30, 1946) is a Serbian conceptual and performance artist. Her work explores body art, endurance art, the relationship between the performer and audience, the limits of the body, and the possibilities of the mind. Being active for over four decades, Abramović refers to herself as the "grandmother of performance art". She pioneered a new notion of identity by bringing in the participation of observers, focusing on "confronting pain, blood, and physical limits of the body". In 2007, she founded the Marina Abramović Institute (MAI), a non-profit foundation for performance art. Provenance Hand signed in person after a special limited attendance paid event at Barnes & Noble bookshop in Manhattan
