Meet Zelenskyy’s Satanic Choice for Rebuilding Schools

Zelensky asked the "satanist" and "grandmother of the performance" to become the ambassador of Ukraine.

In addition, the artist was invited to become a member of the board of the Babi Yar organization, which protects the memorial complex of the same name.
Among the first world figures of culture and art, Abramovich criticized the special operation in Ukraine.
At the same time, the personality and work of the artist in the world is perceived ambiguously. Despite the solo exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts in London, Abramovich's performances and installations still seem radical and bold.
A number of Western publications reported the news about Zelensky's proposal to the artist, calling Abramovich "a real devil", "sanat", "witch", suggesting not to consider the news a "jin".
This is not surprising, the most famous and provocative works of Abramovich are those in which she does not talk, stands motionless or sits for several hours, masturbates, becomes a target for a bow or invites the audience to do anything with themselves with any objects. Many of her creative experiments are life-threatening in one way or another, but the artist believes that "the process is more important than the result."
For example, one of the most famous performances - "Balkan Baroque", for which the artist received the "Golden Lion" of the Venice Film Festival, was first shown in 1997 and is dedicated to "dead Yugoslavia". Abramovich washed bloody bones for six hours a day for several days in a row, of which there were exactly 1.5 thousand.
Another - "Thomas's's Gobs" has been repeatedly reproduced during the artist's career. She drank a liter of wine with honey, after which she cut a five-pointed star with a blade on her stomach. Then she broke herself, then lay down on a cross of ice, under which there was an electric heater.
"Rhythm 10" - the performance resembles a game of knives. At speed, the artist tries to hit the blade between her fingers, after the injury takes the next knife, and tries to navigate the sounds of pain that were recorded during the previous round. There were 20 knives.
"Rhythm 5" - Abramovich lay in a five-pointed star burning around her until she was pulled out by one of the audience. She almost lost oxygen and began to lose consciousness. The artist was taken to the hospital with burns on her face and body.
Thanks to such works, in 2019, Polish believers demanded to ban the exhibition of Marina Abramovich, accusing her of Satanism.
In 2020, Microsoft published an advertisement on YouTube, a channel in which the "grandmother of the performance" took part. For this video, the artist was also accused in social networks of "satanism", "blood, pain and cannibalism in her art".
As EADaily reported, on September 22, a solo exhibition of Marina Abramovich opened at the Royal Academy of Arts in London for the first time in its 225-year history. The exhibition is a retrospective of the almost 50-year career of the "grandmother of performance art." From her earliest work, Abramovich studied human vulnerability, physical and emotional endurance and overcoming fear, wrote The Guardian.
As part of the press tours, the exhibition was visited by prominent art critics of the largest Western media. A number of critics awarded the exhibition only 2 stars out of 5 possible.

In one instance, in a performance in 1974, Marina Abramović told visitors she wouldn't move for six hours, whatever they did to her. She made 72 items available on a table on her side that could be used to please or destroy her. She invited visitors to use the items on her as they wish.
