As I noted in previous spirit cooking and pizzagate related articles, Marina Abramovic is a performance artist which is a reference to a person that he no actual artistic abilities and so they attempt to make up for it by making spectacles of themselves.
In 2013 AD Sara Wookey wrote, “An Open Letter From a Dancer Who Refused to Participate in Marina Abramovic’s MOCA Performance.” She is “a professional dancer and choreographer with 16 years of experience” and has “a Master of Fine Arts degree in Dance from the University of California, Los Angeles.”
Her issue pertained to “the conditions being asked of artists” and thus, her “overriding interest in organizing and forming a union that secures labor standards and fair wages for fine and performing artists.” Reportedly, “Abramovic’s call for artists was, as the LA Times quoted, for ‘strong, silent types’…I refuse to be a silent artist regarding issues that affect my livelihood and the culture of my practice.”
Now, I am certainly utterly empathetic to these point and more I will quote below but what, pray tell, was the masterpiece for which this extremely educated and experienced artist refused to participate? She auditioned and got the part for “nude females to re-enact Abramovic’s signature work, ‘Nude with Skeleton’ (2002), at the center of tables with seats priced at up to $100,000 each.”
Sara Wookey specified:
I refused to participate as a performer because what I anticipated would be a few hours of creative labor, a meal, and the chance to network with like-minded colleagues turned out to be an unfairly remunerated job. I was expected to lie naked and speechless on a slowly rotating table, starting from before guests arrived and lasting until after they left (a total of nearly four hours). I was expected to ignore (by staying in what Abramovic refers to as “performance mode”) any potential physical or verbal harassment while performing. I was expected to commit to fifteen hours of rehearsal time, and sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement stating that if I spoke to anyone about what happened in the audition I was liable for being sued…
I was to be paid $150. During the audition, there was no mention of safeguards, signs, or signals for performers in distress, and when I asked about what protection would be provided I was told it could not be guaranteed. What I experienced as an auditionee for this work was extremely problematic, exploitative, and potentially abusive.
Part of me wants to say words to the effect of, “Look toots: your first mistake is taking your talent and knowhow and having a goal of laying down naked while elitist perverts stare at you. That is not art, that is lower than a strip-club level performance—if someone is willing to pay you a dime for laying down, take it!!!”

This is a from a performance titled “The Artist Is Present” off of which Jay-Z played for his video “Picasso Baby” which is basically a song wherein he rhymes cuss words together—but what’s new? And minimum wage paying Abramovic had the nerve to complain that Jay-Z merely used her:

This is from a performance titled, “Balkan Baroque”: she scrubbed 1,500 cow bones for six hours a day—she would have been better off peeling potatoes at a homeless kitchen but, of course, that would not get her $100,000 per seat:
