In this re-performance by Abramović a performer lives in the museum’s exhibition area for twelve consecutive days and nights following strict rules that include fasting, being silent and showering three times daily. The performance takes place in the recreated installation of Marina Abramović’s original performance from 2002: a platform with three sparsely furnished spaces that serve as a bedroom, living room and bathroom, separated from visitors by ladders with knives for rungs. The audience is invited to silently connect with the performer. The performance will take place from 5 through 16 June at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam as part of the large retrospective exhibition of Marina Abramović’s work. The performance can be visited during the museum’s opening hours. In collaboration with the Holland Festival there will also be three special evening openings for a limited number of people on 8, 11 and 15 June. On 11 June, guides from the Stedelijk Museum will give introductory talks about performance art especially for HF Young and Young Stedelijk members; it is also possible at all times to take part in the performances Counting the Rice and Work Relation. The evening openings for the performance The House with the Ocean View are a joint initiative from Holland Festival and Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.
