Givenchy’s next show will be co-art directed by Marina Abramović

Do you remember Marina Abramović: The Artist is Present? A mesmerizing cinematic journey inside the world of radical performance, and an intimate portrait of an astonishingly magnetic, endlessly intriguing woman who draws no distinction between life and art.
Seductive, fearless, and outrageous, Marina Abramović has been redefining art for nearly forty years. Using her own body as a vehicle----and at times risking her life in the process----she creates performances that challenge, shock, and move us.
Next Givenchy show will be taking place in NYC rather than Paris.  Designer Riccardo Tisci is involving his old friend, artist Marina Abramovic. “She’s going to help me to art direct the show,” he revealed to WWD yesterday, giving little away save to promise that the event would be “very interesting.” This is not the first time designer works with Marina. Back in 2012 Abramović modeled alongside Kate Moss in a campaign for the brand shot by Mert and Marcus, in 2013. Excited to see what they have in store for us.
