In association with Dogwoof, the leading film distributor for social issue and documentary feature films, we’re proud to give away two DVDs of the excellent MARINA ABRAMOVIC THE ARTIST IS PRESENT.
Seductive, fearless, and outrageous, Marina Abramovic has been redefining what art is for nearly 40 years. Using her own body as a vehicle, pushing herself beyond her limits – and at times risking her life in the process – she creates performances that challenge, shock, and move us. MARINA ABRAMOVIC THE ARTIST IS PRESENT follows the artist as she prepares for what may be the most important moment of her life: a major new retrospective of her work, taking place at The Museum of Modern Art. To be given a retrospective at one of the world’s premier museums is the most exhilarating sort of milestone. For Marina, it is far more: it is the chance to finally silence the question she has been hearing over and over again for four decades: “But why is this art?”
To win yourself a DVD, watch the short trailer and then answer the question just below but in the meantime, if you’re unlucky this time, it’s also available to buy on DVD and digital download from 3rd September 2012.
**COMPETITION CLOSED**
The DVD release will include amazing clips of previously unreleased footage including MOMA audience reactions; interviews with the MOMA curator and Marina’s Biographer; as well the recent insightful BFI interview with director Matthew Akers. With performance art now in the forefront of the contemporary art world, this DVD is a must for art lovers and a rare chance to understand the spectacle that is Marina Abramovic.
