Marina Bramovic Turned Herself into Art and Wasn’t Sorry

This is the very first picture - book biography for 4 - 7 - year - old readers about the performance art pioneer, Marina Abramovic. Marina is a globally famous artist. She uses her body in unexpected and unique ways in her performances, making audiences think deeply. For example, she once sat back - to - back with her partner with their hair tied for over 17 hours. And in a museum, visitors watched her scrub 1,500 cow bones for six hours a day. This innovative book tells an inspiring story of this pioneering artist, who was also the first female to have a major solo exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts in London. The book features striking black - and - white and red illustrations printed in Pantones throughout. There's also a reproduction of the artist's work and a brief biography at the back. It brings Marina Abramovic and her cutting - edge work to young readers like never before.

This picture - book biography is a great read for kids aged 4 - 7. To use it, simply sit down with your child and start reading page by page. You can talk about the amazing things Marina did and the illustrations in the book. There aren't really any special precautions. Just make sure the book is kept away from water to avoid damage. If the book gets dirty, you can gently wipe it with a dry cloth. It's a wonderful way to introduce young kids to the world of performance art and an important female artist.
