Marina Abramovic was born in 1946 in Yugoslavia. Growing up during the end of World War II greatly impacted her, especially in her art. She is mostly known for her performances of art, which involve self-mutilation and testing her bodily limits. Her first performance, Rhythm 10, involved her stabbing twenty knives rapidly between her fingers, switching knives when she cut herself, and using the recording of the sound to replicate the performance multiple times. One of her best known performances, Rhythm 0, she devised to test the limits of the relationship between artist and audience. In Rhythm 0, Abramovic sat for six hours beside a table covered in objects (feather, rose, whip, scissors, gun, and others), which she allowed the audience to use on her.
