RHYTHM 5

Yugoslavia. 1974. Sin diálogos. B/N. 8′

Record of some fragments of the first performances in which Abramović explores the body’s limits. In this case, she built a five-pointed star out of gasoline-soaked wood chips. After setting fire to them and throwing in nails and strands of hair, she lies inside the burning star, even losing consciousness.
