Beschreibung:
Can a performance be analysed as a textual practice? Starting from this question, the article tries to describe the "effets du sens" (meaning effects) of some of the work of Marina Abramovic, a Serbian performer and visual artist. From the 1970s when the so-called body art emerged as a visual genre, offering the artist's body as a naked site of inscription, up to the present, when performing has become a more playful and direct transmission of energy between the doer and the viewer, the work of Abramovic represents an effective and powerful example of the body-as-a-text in which subjectivity can be re-expressed and reinvented through the transformations of the relation between time and space. In the strong relationship created between the performer and the audience, what is enacted is a translatipn-transduction of material and cognitive meanings that results in a redefinition of a subjective and, simultaneously, collective experience of identity.
