Marina Abramović in conversation with Seth Meyers
Performance art legend Marina Abramović joins Seth Meyers to discuss five decades of boundary-pushing work and the ideas that defined her career.
Why we picked this
Five decades of endurance art, audience confrontation, and redefining what performance can be — Abramović in conversation at The Cooper Union is the kind of evening where the questions matter as much as the answers.
Marina Abramović, one of the most influential performance artists alive, sits down with Seth Meyers at The Cooper Union to reflect on a career that has spanned five decades of extreme endurance pieces, interactive performances, and work that fundamentally challenged the relationship between artist and audience.
The conversation covers the ideas, challenges, and breakthroughs that have defined Abramović’s extraordinary career — from her early collaborations with Ulay through The Artist Is Present at MoMA and beyond. Meyers brings a conversational sensibility that should open up the discussion to audiences who may know the legend but not the full story.
