Wall --- 4 -- by Paco DelgadoI’m a fan of Marina Abramovic’s performance art.

I wrote about it three years ago in a review of “The Lovers” which was the catalogue for the work that she and her partner at the time Ulay carried out in 1988  a walk toward each other on the Great Wall of China.

There’s also a wonderful video of her work The Artist is Present, put on in 2010 at MOMA.  A nice clip from it is available on YouTube.

Now, artsy.net has put together a nifty and comprehensive webpage about her career, featuring images from scores of her works.  It appears to be a great resource.
