Review: Walk Through Walls: Becoming Marina Abramovic

Walk Through Walls: Becoming Marina Abramovic Walk Through Walls: Becoming Marina Abramovic by Marina Abramović
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Really an amazing, directed, triumphant, and singular life here. Also, to hear Abramović narrate the work herself, including her ESL grammar and pronunciation, makes it another personal and memorable performance. I find this artists life story in four parts here: growing up in Tito's Yugoslavia, works with Ulay (Uwe Laysiepen), independence and personal prominence (Seven Easy Pieces, 2005; The Artist Is Present 2010), and finally building a legacy for her immaterial art / amplified art.
