Book of the Month: Marina Abramović ‘Walk Though Walls’
22 Apr, 19:00 | Location: yolkhaüs
About the book:
This book has quietly held its place as one of the most intimate portraits of an artist, and it feels like the right moment to return to the story behind the performances — the one told by Marina Abramović herself. Walk Through Walls goes beyond the mythology that surrounds her work and instead opens a more personal, often uncomfortable space: one shaped by discipline, control, vulnerability, and an almost radical devotion to feeling.
Rather than focusing only on the iconic moments the world already knows, the memoir invites a closer look at what exists beneath them — the emotional endurance, the contradictions, the relationships that both built and broke her. It is a story about the body as both a limit and a tool, about love that transforms into distance, and about the quiet, persistent search for meaning through extremes.
Timing:
19:00 meet and greet
19:30—20:30 discussion
20:30—21:30 free talk (up to you)
