Related: this artist, Marina Abramović, has just become the first woman ever to have a solo exhibition hosted by the Royal Academy of Arts in London, which opened two days ago.
I haven't been, and it's had mixed reviews (well I haven't analysed the average of all reviews or anything, but I have seen one extremely positive one and one fairly negative one), but I thought worth mentioning as anyone interested in this thread/submission might be interested in going to see her more recent work.
(To enter the exhibition you walk through a fairly narrow doorway squeezing between a naked man and a naked woman who are standing on either side in the doorway, facing each other - or you can opt out and ask to be shown to the entrance that doesn't involve a narrow fit and naked people. NSFW photo of that doorway with two of the models used: https://d1inegp6v2yuxm.cloudfront.net/royal-academy/image/up... )
