By: Pascha Jirasakwittaya The latest durational performance by the internationally acclaimed artist Marina Abramović called ‘Private Archaeology’, is currently being exhibited at David Walsh's Museum of Old and New Art in Hobart, Australia (June-Oct 2015). Abramović selected nine objects from the MONA collection, which she called ‘Power Objects’ – objects from different cultures and ages. As re-exhibited in a new space and time, she challenges visitors to rediscover, rethink and even reinterpret the values and meanings of these objects. In addition, Private Archaeology also includes the artist’s 41 works, both recognisable and lesser-known works across her 40 years of observation and communication upon objects, artist body, the presence of audience and exhibition space.
