Marina Abramovics selvbiografi ”At gå gennem mure” er en stærk og dybt fascinerede fortælling af en kunstner, der gennem hele sit liv frygtløst har udforsket og skubbet kroppens og sindets grænser. Marina Abramovic er performancekunstens superstjerne og blev for alvor verdensberømt med sin over 700-timers performance, ”The Artist Is Present” på kunstmuseet MoMA i New York i 2010, hvor mere end 750.000 personer stod i kø for at kunne komme til at møde hende ansigt til ansigt. Fra 17. juni til 22. oktober 2017 viser kunstmuseet Louisiana i Humlebæk udstillingen The Cleaner, der er den første store retrospektive præsentation af Marina Abramovics arbejde i Europa.

Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable, audiobook edition of Walk Through Walls written and read by Marina Abramovic. This memoir spans Marina Abramovics five decade career, and tells a life story that is almost as exhilarating and extraordinary as her groundbreaking performance art. Taking us from her early life in communist ex-Yugoslavia, to her time as an a young art student in Belgrade in the 1970s, where she first made her mark with a series of pieces that used the body as a canvas, the book also describes her relationship with the West German performance artist named Ulay who was her lover and sole collaborator for 12 years. Abramovic has collaborated with stars from Lady Gaga to Jay-Z, James Franco and Willem Dafoe. Best known for her recent pieces The Artist is Present and 512 Hours, this book is a fascinating insight into the life of one of the most important artists working today, and the woman who has been described as the grandmother of performance art.
