In a unique work created for the Serpentine, the internationally acclaimed artist Marina Abramović will perform in the Gallery for the duration of her exhibition: 10am to 6pm, 6 days a week – for a total of 512 hours. Creating the simplest of environments in the Gallery spaces, Abramović’s only materials will be herself, the audience and a selection of common objects that she will use in a constantly changing sequence of events.

Marina Abramović (b. 1946) is a pioneer of performance as an art form, using her own body as subject and object, she has consistently pushed the physical and mental limits of her being. 512 Hours is the first major performance by Abramović since her monumental piece The Artist is Present, at the Museum of Modern Art, New York in 2010, in which visitors were invited to sit in silence opposite the artist and gaze into her eyes for an unspecified amount of time. Abramović performed this work every day for three months.

The presence of the visitors will guide Abramović, assisting in the development and changing nature of the exhibition throughout her residency. As she states: “It is not … enough that I’m experiencing doing a performance in front of you and you are just passing as witness. If you really want to have your own experience, the only thing that matters is to … perform yourself.” As an extension of this statement, Abramović requires the audience to involve themselves directly and intimately in the performance; the public will become the performing body, participating in the delivery of an unforgettable moment in the history of performance art.

Julia Peyton-Jones, Director, and Hans Ulrich Obrist, Co-Director, Serpentine Galleries, have said: “Incredibly, this is the first time a public art gallery in the UK has staged a durational performance by Marina Abramović who, since the early 1970s, has done more than anybody to define what performance art is. With a simplicity that harks back to her earliest solo performances, this time there are no rules, there is no formula. Just the artist, the audience and a few, simple props in the empty, white space of the Serpentine Gallery. Marina requests your presence at the Serpentine this Summer. And so do we.”

国际知名藝術家瑪麗娜·阿布拉莫维奇的個展“512小時”,專門為蛇形美術館獨家打造。每週六天,從早晨10點至晚上六點,總時長512小時。在館內,阿布拉莫维奇將只創建最简单的环境,唯一的材料僅是她本人、觀眾和一些常见物件。

瑪麗娜·阿布拉莫维奇,生于1946年,是行為藝術的先驅;她將自己的身體作為主体与客体,並且不斷挑戰自己的身體與心理極限。“512小时”是繼她2010年在紐約現代藝術博物館展出“藝術家在場”之後的又一主要展覽。在紐約舉辦的“藝術家在場”:觀眾可以靜坐在阿布拉諾維奇對面與其對視,時間不限。她連續三個月每天到場。

在她常駐期間,觀眾將引導阿布拉莫維奇,協助她發展與完善此次展覽的性質。正如她所說 “您作為看客是遠遠不夠的,如果您希望能有自己獨特的體驗,唯一的辦法就是——展示你自己。”因此,阿布拉莫維奇需要觀眾們直接地,深入地投入進展覽中。公眾成為表演的主體、體會行為藝術歷史上這一難忘的時刻。

導演茱莉亞佩頓·瓊斯以及蛇形美術館主席漢斯·烏爾里希·奧布里斯特紛紛表示: “令人難以置信的是,這是阿布拉諾維奇首次在英國的公共藝術畫廊里現場演出。自1970年早期以來,她身體力行來告訴人們什麼是行為藝術。回顧她最早期的表演,這次,沒有規則和標準,只有藝術家、觀眾、簡單的道具以及畫廊的空間。瑪麗娜邀請您的參與,我們也一樣。”
