Marina Abramović Institute (MAI) presents and supports performance art at a global scale.

MAI seeks to address the complexity of the present time in order to shift awareness and consciousness of human beings through performance.

MAI seeks to address the complexity of the present time in order to shift awareness and consciousness of human beings through performance. The institute invites interdisciplinary collaboration and union between practitioners of all disciplines including art, science, technology, and spirituality.

In 2023, MAI opened its space in Karyes, Greece, to support creative processes around performance art and generate collaborative thinking. The Institute hosts Cleaning the House, a workshop developed by Abramović to reset the body and help understand one’s physical or mental limits. The workshops are open to public participants coming from any discipline.

Globally, the institute creates communal participatory projects that critically engage with time, place, and human experiences. To date, MAI has presented major performance projects in Sao Paulo (2015), Athens (2016), Kyiv (2017), Bangkok (2018), Istanbul (2020), Amsterdam (2022), and London (2023).
