Marina Abramović leads an unprecedented three-month CIRCA presentation of The Hero, a global call for courageous new heroes at a pivotal moment in our collective history. Set against today's backdrop of global instability, rising tensions and climate breakdown, the figure of a steadfast woman astride a white horse holds symbolic charge on a world stage dominated by masculine power and escalating conflict.
Instigating an extended three-month pause throughout June, July and August, broadcasting across the CIRCA network of screens (London, Seoul, Milan, Berlin, New York and Los Angeles), Abramović invites a global audience to consider and assume new definitions of heroism.
Embodying the CIRCA 2022 manifesto ‘AND NOW WE BUILD WORLDS’, the heroes that Abramović seeks today are champions of a new way of thinking and living. Calling on brave figures to restore peace and reverse the destruction of the planet, the iconic vision of a rider holding a white flag invites contrasting ideas of heroism celebrating pacifism over conflict; femininity over machismo; self-sacrifice over dominance; and collectivity over individualism.
