Summary:For many years 'godmother of performance art' Marina Abramovic and renowned director Robert Wilson had been intending to work together. Ultimately this took shape with the opera project 'The Life and Death of Marina Abramovic' Abramovic placed her personal archives at Wilson's disposal, and from these he forged a magnificent production involving Marina Abramovic herself, composer/singer Antony and actor Willem Dafoe. This phenomenal cast plays out the theatrical narrative of images envisaged by Wilson. In collaboration with Marina Abramovic, De Ketelfactory has compiled a kaleidoscopic 'making of' in which unique contributions can een seen. In 'Confession' for example, a recording of a performance by Abramovic tells the stories that come up in the opera. The interviews with Abramovic, Wilson, Anthony and Dafoe have been adapted for this publication. 0Exhibition: De Ketelfactory, Schiedam, the Netherlands (19.5.-15.7.2012)
