Forums › Life › Arts & Culture › Beautiful – Marina Abramovic and Ulay
Marina Abramovic and Ulay started an intense love story in the 70s, performing art out of the van they lived in. When they felt the relationship had run its course, they decided to walk the Great Wall of China, each from one end, meeting for one last big hug in the middle and never seeing each other again.
At her 2010 MoMa retrospective Marina performed ‘The Artist Is Present’ as part of the show, where she shared a minute of silence with each stranger who sat in front of her. Ulay arrived without her knowing and this is what happened.

made me cry
:love:
I saw this the other day. It melted some of the ice off my heart.
Esp as the original idea was for them to meet half way and get married,
But during the 8 years it took to get permission from the government to do the project their relationship had begun to dissolve
Went over my head sadly
