Art21 proudly presents an artist segment, featuring Marina Abramović, from the "History" episode in Season 6 of the "Art in the Twenty-First Century" series.

"History" premiered in April 2012 on PBS.

Marina Abramović, an artist who draws upon her upbringing in Communist Yugoslavia and offers insights into her artistic vision via her personal manifesto, appears in a new video piece created in collaboration with video artist Charles Atlas. This segment marks the first time in Art21’s history that the artist profile itself is an original work of art.
