“Nomadic Journey And Spirit Of Places” - An artist's notebooks are arguably the most authentic means of understanding his process, techniques and impulses. For a performance artist, they are also a rare and permanent record of how he develops his art. Compiled over four decades on stationery from various hotels and other temporary residences, this collection of Marina Abramović's original drawings, collages, poems, writings, cut-outs, photographs and scribbles offers a glimpse into a brilliant mind in perpetual motion. Beautifully produced and packaged, it takes readers on a journey through Abramović's thoughts - and traces the evolution of the most successful phase of her career. “I believe that we humans must keep moving forward, and my own life was purely nomadic,” Abramović writes of his travel diaries. “My home was everywhere I went because my home was my own body”. With the archival documents elegantly reproduced in their original format on high-quality paper, this collection offers Abramović's enormous fanbase unprecedented access to her creative process.
