One of the key practitioners of the art of performance art, Yugoslav-born Marina
Ambramovic receives a stirring tribute to her unique cultural
contribution in the feature film MARINA ABRAMOVIĆ: THE ARTIST IS PRESENT. The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and proceeded to win the Panorama Audience Award the following month at the Berlin Film Festival. It now comes to New York’s premiere art house cinema, the Film Forum
in downtown Manhattan for an exclusive two week run beginning on June
13. The film’s subject has been redefining what art is for nearly forty
years. Her retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art
last year featured an extraordinary performance of her individual
artistic process known as performance art. Experienced by over 750,000
people during the MoMA run, the artist sat in
meditative silent pose at a small table for nearly 8 hours a day, not
eating, drinking or moving. The intensity of her gaze, the intimacy of
the act (paradoxically in a huge, brightly lit room, filled with
onlookers) moved some to tears and other acts of extreme emotion. Matthew Akers’s
film records the artist as she prepares herself physically and
spiritually for the ordeal with tremendous discipline, humor and guile.
With comments by MoMA curator Klaus Biesenbach, art critic Arthur Danto, gallerist Sean Kelly, and hundreds of members of the public (including James Franco) who were obviously moved by this landmark event. For more information, visit: www.filmforum.org
