Since the beginning of her career, in Belgrade in the late 1960's, Marinna Abramovic has pioneered performance as visual art form, creating some of the most important works in the fireld. Mariana Abramovic: The Artist Is present documents this history in detail, representing the range of Abramovic's Art in sound, Videa, installation, photography, and performance, as well aas the reperformance of both solo and collaborative historical works. Ephemeral and time-based, performance is harder than more traditional art works to preserve and pass on to posterity; The Artist Is Present constitites a complex address of this issue. Featuring essays by Klaus Biesenbach, Arthur C. Danto, Chrissie Iles, Nancy Spector, nad Jovana Stokic, the book also includes an audio recording in which Abramovic her self guides the reader through the volume pages.
