Re-Air: Marina Abramovic on How Her Artistic Method Can Change Your Life
b'Over the years, we\\u2019ve been very fortunate to have some bona fide legendary artists on this show, from Ai Weiwei to Judy Chicago to Anish Kapoor to Ed Ruscha. But none of them, to my mind, are as surprising to talk to as the great performance artist Marina Abramovi\\u0107, who host Andrew Goldstien had the privilege of interviewing toward the start of this year.\\nWhen you think about her art, what comes to the fore are profound themes of life and death, pain, and transcending the body. When you\\u2019re talking to her, you think: wait, she\\u2019s hilarious? And provocative, and blunt, and something like down-to-earth.\\nWe enjoyed the conversation about her work and her Abramovic Method so much that, this week, while the Art Angle team hits the beach for a little vacation, we thought we\\u2019d re-air the episode for your listening pleasure. In fact, the Abramovic Method might even come in handy for durationally enduring all this heat. Enjoy.'
