Marina Abramović's 'Traces' Pop-Up Show in London
Marina Abramović (Belgrade, 1946) presents 'Traces', a pop-up exhibition at the Old Truman Brewery in London from September 10 to 12, 2021. The free immersive experience features five rooms exploring themes and objects that inspired her art, including Vincent van Gogh's 'The Starry Night', essays by Susan Sontag, and the Rose of Jericho. The show includes works 'Crystal Cinema' (1991) and '10,000 Stars' (2015), plus a specially created interview. It is the culmination of Abramović's collaboration with WePresent, the editorial project of WeTransfer, which recently customized its upload page with content on her meditation method.
