Marina Abramovic @ Lisson Gallery
14 September 2021 - 30 October 2021
Marina Abramović presents the culmination of her lifelong passion and empathy for the talented and tragic figure of singer Maria Callas (1923-1977). Abramović has created Seven Deaths, a new, immersive cinematic experience based on seven untimely demises she undergoes on screen, set to the moving soundtrack of seven Callas solos at Lisson.
In Cork Street, Abramović exhibits seven alabaster sculptures relating to these lethal vignettes, which are also self-portraits of the artist inhabiting different personae – herself, Callas, the jilted bride or the sacrificial paramour, among others – each facing their own emotional, operatic endings.
