Marina Abramović is a pioneering conceptual and performance artist whose work explores body and endurance art. Her work also investigates the relationship between performer and audience. Active for 50 years, she considers her-self as the ‘grandmother of performance art’. Her output consistently pushes the boundaries of performance as a visual form.

William Parker has been a leader in the NYC FreeJazz movement since the early 1970’s. He revolutionized bass playing, using double bow and other extended techniques to bring the bass to the forefront of the band while still holding down the bottom. He has recorded over 250 albums, published 10 books, and taught and mentored hundreds of young musicians and artists.
