Summary/Abstract: The Art of performance after The Artist Is Present. The continuation of Marina Abramović’s actions in her followers’ workPerformance art, recognized in the second half of the 20th century as niche and alternative, is currently perceived as one of the most popular genres of contemporary art. The difference that has raised due to the development of performance art is evident not only in the way a performance is created, but mainly in changing the perception of the work of art. The opening of the Marina Abramović Institute and the performance The Artist Is Present, became the main turning point showing this change. The aim of this article is to present how the art of Marina Abramović, which she consistently created for more than four decades, evolves in the works of the new generations of performers. Qualitative research based on film, interviews, exhibitions and publications related to the subject is the base for these considerations.
