Marina Abramovic
Zooming in, zooming out. I was shocked. I said, Let's erase this right now, put the camera behind the stage and I'll do the performance just for the camera. He set up everything and I told him to go outside and smoke a cigarette. Come back when I finish. Don't touch the camera. This was the way how I've done most everything after that.
Marina Abramovic
Talking about [Donald] Trump, there's nothing wrong with Trump. He's who he is. It's wrong with us, who let him [win]. That's what's wrong. It's not that he's going to change, but the people who think like him.
Marina Abramovic

Marina Abramovic
