Eating Out with Marina Abramovic and Daniel Libeskind
The pioneer of performance art and one of the most important architects of our time meet on the stage of the Auditorium for a debate on the theme of Food. The dialogue is accompanied by a gallery of images selected by the two, to address and share with the audience individual relationships with nutrition.
A prototype will be displayed of the table (in collaboration with Moroso) designed by Daniel Libeskind for the performance of the Abramovic Method “Rice Counting” held from 1 to 11 May in Geneva, in which participants are asked to sit down and count two different types of grains and seeds. The table, in its definitive version, belongs to MAI.
MAI - Marina Abramovic Institute is a non-profit organization for encounters between the humanistic disciplines, the arts, sciences and technology.
