THOMAS LIPS

Yugoslavia. 1975-2012. VOSV. B/N y color. 96′

In this historic performance, shown for the first time in Austria in 1975, Marina Abramović carries out a series of actions that push her physical limits to the extreme. She begins by eating a kilo of honey and drinking a litre of wine. Then, she breaks the glass and her actions become increasingly violent and masochistic, until reaching an iconic image: that of the artist “drawing” a five-pointed star on her stomach with a razor blade.
