Information on the exhibition, taken from the Modern Art Oxford Website:
“Pioneering performance artist Marina Abramovic (b. 1946, Belgrade, lives and works in New York) presents a new site-specific performance-based exhibition at Modern Art Oxford.
‘Gates and Portals’ explores transitional states of being, with each visitor participating as a performer with a small group of others. During the exhibition visitors will encounter gates and portals that prompt contemplation of bodily awareness and elevated consciousness.
The exhibition was developed following a research residency at the Pitt Rivers Museum, Oxford in summer 2021. To complement ‘Gates and Portals’, a case installation of a film and new drawings made by the artist during her residency will be on display at the Pitt Rivers Museum.”
