Marina Abramovic








A very strange lady altogether! Abramović's work explores the relationship between performer and audience. Who else would place upon a table 72 objects that people were allowed to use (on her) in any way that they chose? Some of these were objects that could give pleasure, while others could be wielded to inflict pain, or to harm her. Among them were scissors, a knife, a whip, and, most notoriously, a gun and a single bullet. For six hours the artist allowed the audience members to manipulate her body and actions.

Jenny Holzer




Since the 1970's, Holzer's use of linguistics has been the primary focus in her artwork, making profound statements and slogans through vehicles commonly used in advertising, such as electric billboards, LED and xenon projections and TV commercials. These simple declarative sentences, usually in capital letters, appear anonymously in urban spaces containing surprising, startling, unprotected and often not too pleasant messages of political, social and cultural content. Holzer's ability to transform statements on topical subject matters such as war, violence, racism and death into an aesthetic presence is well amazing!
