Will Gompertz and Maria Abramovic






This programme, part of the Zeitgeisters series on Radio 4, was broadcast on 17th July.

In it Abramovic, the Yugoslavian artist,  talks with Gompertz about her life, and how she came to reject conventional art media in favour of performance art, taking life itself, and the personal experiences that we all have itself as her medium.

I found it a fascinating account of her ideas, which have been very influential in contemporary art.
