Yeah, her work is fascinating and extremely revealing about the human psyche. 

This is kind of terrifying though. Hope she doesnt get hurt. :giveup:

But this still got a reaction from you. Crazy or not, she has people’s attention. And we’ll all be tuned in to see how it’ll end up.

hmm don't judge me, I really really want (so tell me what you want what you really really want) to electrify her, to be the one who's doing it, see, this is one of my dreams in life, I'm not a psycho I swear, so like to do it to her it's legal because she wants it and we can make a contract that says that she can't sue me or something right?

How can I contact ha?:selena:

The coolest thing she ever did IMO was mentioned in the article. Sitting still around knives, guns, etc and letting the public one by one approach you.  What would they do? What is that nature? 

I wouldve taken the items and put them behind her and focused on her eyes and smiled. As if to say, all of that is behind you now and can't hurt you anymore. 

But people cut her, held guns to her head, were very menacing. What is the nature?  

So yea I find it rather cool.

Lady Gaga's collaborator during the ARTPOP era, Marina Abramović to electrify herself with one million volts in the name of art.

Lady+Gaga+Marina+Abramovic+Lady+Gaga+Pre

Marina Abramović’s work is famous for its shock-factor. In 1974, for example, the Serbia-born performance artist put the relationship between audience and performer to the test by laying out 72 items – including a knife and a loaded gun – and sitting passively among them. Audience members subsequently cut up her clothes using the knife while an exhibition-visitor held the loaded gun to her head. Another performance involved Marina slowly approaching a high-powered fan as she tried to breathe in as much air as her lungs would allow. She lost consciousness shortly afterwards. Her upcoming performance promises to be just as radical.

In 2020 the Royal Academy of Arts will be hosting Abramović’s solo show, which will see the artist charging her body with one million volts. If successfully executed, Abramović – who will be 73 at the time of the show – will extinguish a candle a metre away from her; the electric field will apparently repel the flames’ charged particles.

Abramović will be the first ever woman to take over the main galleries of the Royal Academy of Arts since it was founded 250 years ago. Other ideas Abramović proposed for her exhibition may, however, not be realised such as a glass fountain spouting the artist’s blood.
