The Yugoslavian self-proclaimed “grandmother of performance art” has been tearing up the scene since the ’70s. While her current work described above, “The Artist Is Present,” is blasting the center atrium of MoMA, a collection of her other work as big as Dolly Parton’s tits, presented through photograph, video, and live performance, is upstairs showing the world what a woman can really do. “The House with the Ocean View,” one of the showcased pieces, is one example of how tit-tacular Abramovic can be. For this work, performed in 2002, she climbed naked into a public three-platform stage where she remained without speaking or eating for 12 days. Following a strict regiment of sleeping, showering, and drinking water, she intended this art piece to be a full body and mind cleanse.
Abramovic is the epitome of all that is Lazertits. Next time you are bored, hungry, self-conscious, lonely, or in any kind of discomfort, think about Abramovic and “The House with the Ocean View.” And next time you have a free afternoon, go to MoMA and check out this blindingly Lazertits exhibition.
