It sure ain't Bach. She succeeded against a self imposed constraint of her anxiety and baited needy and damaged people to reveal their own perversions. What a circle jerk. Demonstrations of human capacity for ugliness are a lot easier than revealing something beautiful. I've met a few people over the years who set themselves up to be victimized so that they could feel justified in their own malice toward the world, and it's a banal psychological trope you'd think people wouldn't fall for. A lot of conceptual and performance art to me is just sickness.
The only thing that makes her interesting as a phenomena is how she appears as an enabler and convener in the orbit of some cunning and opportunistic men whose nihilism she would seem to validate for them. When you see our purpose as being to renew life and thrive, to me this kind of worship of consuming material experiences that Abramovic is known for is a spiritual poverty.
