About this listen

Penguin presents the unabridged downloadable audiobook edition of Walk Through Walls, written and read by Marina Abramovic. This memoir spans Marina Abramovic's five-decade career and tells a life story that is almost as exhilarating and extraordinary as her groundbreaking performance art.

Taking us from her early life in communist ex-Yugoslavia to her time as an a young art student in Belgrade in the 1970s, where she first made her mark with a series of pieces that used the body as a canvas, the audiobook also describes her relationship with the West German performance artist named Ulay who was her lover and sole collaborator for 12 years. Abramovic has collaborated with stars from Lady Gaga to Jay-Z, James Franco and Willem Dafoe and is best known for her recent pieces 'The Artist Is Present' and '512 Hours'.

This audiobook is a fascinating insight into the life of one of the most important artists working today and the woman who has been described as 'the grandmother of performance art'.

Amazing story of real life

I was amazed about Marina's Abramovic personality. Great book, very fascinating. I am not art or performance art lover or even being somewhere close, but i loved the book, watched videos, interviews, planning to watch Brazil film on vimeo. Amazing story of real life.

Fascinating and insightful listen

Really enjoyed hearing Abramovic’s story, and her slow, almost hypnotic voice made it all the more enjoyable. I knew of her but never fully understood the power of her work and it’s reason for being, how she pushed her body and mind to its extremes, until listening to her life experiences and descriptions of each piece.

Marina is an inspiration to humanity.

I had heard many things (not good) about Marina, Myself and my eldest daughter watched The Artist is Present and where totally mesmerised by her Art. I have since indulged myself in her work, this book is fantastic and Marina,s narrative is perfect such an amazing human being, we hope to go to her show in London next year. I really cannot recommend this book enough LIFECHANGING , Thank you Marina Abramovic.
