More quotes by Marina Abramovic
I had such an intense relationship to every person. I still see people on the street and we lock eyes, and say Oh my god! and we just kiss and stay like that and sometimes cry.
Marina Abramovic
I am not a therapist. I am not a spiritual leader. These elements are in the art: it is therapeutic, spiritual, social and political - everything. It has many layers. But art has to have many layers. If it doesn't, then forget it.
Marina Abramovic
First of all, to do performance art, you really have to give 100 percent. I only know that I have to give 100 percent and then what happens, happens.
Marina Abramovic
You should see ballerinas' feet. They don't have nails. You see beauty, but it's unbelievable pain - with a 40-year pension! That's it, and then life is really finished.
Marina Abramovic
Being an artist is not easy - I have always said that to the students I have taught over the years. It's a huge sacrifice.
Marina Abramovic
With classical ballet you are literally injuring yourself.
Marina Abramovic
Television is completely another medium. For me, Lady Gaga and HBO are bringing us to mass culture.
Marina Abramovic
I really like dark, politically incorrect humor.
Marina Abramovic
I didn't give any instruction to the video, because it was a new medium. I didn't know what to tell him it was so young. I did the piece and immediately after the piece, I wanted to see the material.
Marina Abramovic
I have found that long durational art is really the key to changing consciousness. On such a deep level. Not just the performer, but the one looking at it.
Marina Abramovic
We always want to do things the way we like, that's why we never change.
Marina Abramovic
Dali Lama said, 'when you open the heart of the person with humor, you can tell him the most truth. But if you tell him truth without humor, the heart closes.'
Marina Abramovic
I believe that life is shorter that is why we have to make experience longer.
Marina Abramovic
I am obsessive always, even as a child. On one side is this strict orthodox religion, on the other is communism, and I am this little girl pulled between the two. It makes me who I am. It turns me into the kind of person that Freud would have a field day with, for sure.
Marina Abramovic
I hate kitchens. I don't understand these enormous American kitchens that take up half the living room and then they just order pizza.
Marina Abramovic
Don't even ask me why. I do not know, I have no answer to this insane behaviour.
Marina Abramovic
Performance has to be mainstream art. This is what I'm fighting for.
Marina Abramovic
The hardest thing to do is something that is close to nothing.
Marina Abramovic
My memoirs are full of humor, I had to change jokes because it was a little too dark.
Marina Abramovic
We, performers, work on willpower. This willpower works in a short term, not durational.
