Abstracts

The purpose of the article is to interpret Marina Abramović’s project – The Artist Is Present – within the theories of liveness and encounter. First of all, we define post-mediatic culture referring to Piotr Celiński’s proposals and the term ‘encounter’ according to Adam Węgrzecki. Finally, we propose some considerations on the encounter as a methodological approach to the phenomena whose main characteristic is liveness (Peggy Phelan and Philip Auslander). Finally, we pass to the analysis of the performance of Marina Abramović The Artist Is Present based on the considerations made previously.
