Since the beginning of her career in Belgrade during the early 1970s, Marina Abramovic has pioneered performance art, creating some of the form's most important early works. She was awarded the Golden Lion for Best Artist at the 1997 Venice Biennale and in 2010 had her first major US retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. In 2023 she will present a solo exhibition at the Royal Academy in London, and become the first female artist in the institution's 250-year history to occupy the entire gallery space with her work.
""Ever sat and stared into another person's eyes for an hour? Ever
stumbled around a space blindfolded wearing earplugs? Ever stared
at a wall? Well, now you can, and not just for fun: you'll be
learning The Marina Abramovi? Method, devised by the world-famous
performance artist known for her self-punishing and extreme
artistic measures." - artnet news,

"Although the activities [in The Abramovic Method] are relatively
simple, they will be new practices for most people. Doing just one
a day can help with stronger focus and connection with the present
moment to increase creative potential." - Through the Reading
Glass
"Created by Abramovi? and arts and fiction writer Katya Tylevich,
the 30-card set makes some ambitious and alluring promises: to
'purge your mind of all unnecessary distractions and anxieties' and
'unleash your creativity'." -Wallpaper*
"Improve your life, the Marina Abramovi? way." - The Art
Newspaper
"Our final conclusion is that The Marina Abramovi? Method is a
disarming combination of genuine and fascinating artistic process,
mixed in with a liberal sprinkling of straight out nonsense. But
one woman's nonsense is another woman's genius." - DailyArt
Magazine
"The card deck is the distillation of her own process of readying
for performances and art-making; many of the techniques are simple
mindfulness exercises. And it's surprisingly (refreshingly?)
earnest." - The LA Times
