Marina Abramovic, art-agenda

The series "Back to Simplicity"—Marina Abramovic's most recent work, never before shown in Brazil—arose from the need to reestablish the artist's contact with nature, in its simplest and most immediate forms, after the cathartic experience of Abramovic's three-month-long performance piece entitled The Artist is Present, presented at a recent solo show at MoMA New York. In the words of the artist: "after I had been looking at one thousand six hundred and seventy five pairs of eyes, after that incredible human connection, I needed to be connected with nature. (...) Being under a tree, holding a lamb for two days, in complete joy, that's what Back to Simplicity is all about."

Luciana Brito Galeria is delighted to announce the exhibition Back to Simplicity by Marina Abramovic
