Marina, the mother of performance art: An experiment with the body, a six-hour test, exposes the ugliness of human nature

Today I would like to introduce you to the mother of performance art, Marina Abramovich.

For more than forty years, Marina's performance art has been full of wildness, boldness, madness, and freedom.

Today we introduce one of these works here:

In 1974, Marina performed in Naples, Italy<韵律0>.

<韵律0>Marina allowed the audience to pick out the 72 items placed on the table to do anything to her, during which time she would be anesthetized and would not resist.

The 72 items on display ranged from romantic roses to guns filled with bullets.

Performance art begins: At first the people present are only tentatively doing something to Marina, painting on her. Later, when people gradually realized that Marina had no resistance, the behavior gradually became bold.

Romantic roses stabbed into the abdomen, scissors cut clothes, knives cut wounds, drinks poured on the body at will... Even the gun was loaded and pointed at her.

When people are given some kind of power; when people are imprisoned by the rules of human society for a long time; when people no longer have a moral bottom line, the ugliness of human beings is fully revealed.

<韵律0>A total of six hours of performance, in the course of these six hours, the anesthetized Marina gradually awakened consciousness, her eyes gradually filled with tears, her body could not move, and her heart was also full of fear.

When the anesthesia was over, Marina got up from her chair, tears falling from her eyes and dragging her scarred body toward the audience. And the audience also became guilty, frightened, frightened, and fled in all directions.

After the performance, Marina also said: "This experience made me realize that if you give all the decisions to someone else, then you are not far from death." ”

The story of Marina Abramovich, the mother of performance art, ends here. This experiment made me see that when people have no constraints and are given a certain amount of power, the ugly nature of human nature is completely exposed. What do you have to say about the show?
