However, it omits to mention that Abramovi\u0107 has been linked to <a href=\"https:\/\/dcist.com\/story\/16\/12\/05\/what-on-earth-is-pizzagate-why-did\/\">Comet Ping Pong<\/a>, a Washington Pizzaria that was at the centre of allegations involving powerful U.S. politicians and the kidnapping and abuse of children and underage teens.<\/p>\n<p>It also breathes not a word of reports that suggested that Abramovi\u0107 was associated with ritual human sacrifice. Although, like all con artists she has a plausible alibi for that: in that some of her performances depicted <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/?p=142661\">\u2018pretend\u2019 cannibalism<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_142663\" style=\"width: 390px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-142663\" class=\"wp-image-142663\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Lady-Gaga-and-Marina-at-the-20th-Annual-Watermill-Center-benefit.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"380\" height=\"247\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-142663\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lady Gaga and Marina at the 20th Annual Watermill Center benefit in a place called \u2018Devil\u2019s Heaven\u2019 (can\u2019t make this up).

Where we could see performances of ritual human sacrifice and cannibalism, and if that happens it may only be a matter of time before those \u2018performance arts\u2019 simulations become real.<\/p>\n<p>After all, if you had suggested in the 1960s that one day homosexuality would be graphically depicted on TV no one would have believed you. As we now know, that&#8217;s no longer the case and such content is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/tv-and-radio\/2017\/may\/17\/how-american-gods-changed-the-game-for-gay-sex-on-tv\">now broadcast regularly<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Will the day come when ritual human sacrifices are broadcast on national TV? Seriously. Marina Abramovi\u0107\u2019s take over at Sky Arts, if only for one night, doesn&#8217;t auger well and might herald far worse to come.

Exclusive to Sky Arts, Marina will be bringing her unique vision to television for the first time, telling the 100-year story of performance art- now the fastest growing, most controversial art form in the world.<\/p>\n<p>Her mission is simple: to take performance art to as wide, diverse, young and global an audience as possible.<\/p>\n<p>For the course of one evening, Marina will take over a dramatic TV space, deep diving into the very origins of performance art and its evolution to modern day, showcasing live performance from the most diverse, exciting, emerging artists in the world. Conceptually, this will be a mix of programmes and archive fronted by Marina, plus live and \u2018as live\u2019 performance.<\/p>\n<p>Marina will explore the big themes of the art form to which she has devoted her life, making connections between the human body, sculpture, film, music, fashion, advertising, dance, community, society, spirituality and even life and death. The result will be eye-popping, beautiful, baffling, funny, heart-stopping and mind blowing.<\/p>\n<p>The performance will contain elements of her own personal inspirations, from Dada and Salvador Dali to David Bowie, Cabaret Volaire, to Maria Calls, Surrealism to the Sex Pistols. This will culminate in a climatic final performance with mass participation led by Marina herself. The evening will not just educate and entertain Sky Arts viewers: it will shock, surprise, thrill and seduce.<\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s announcement follows Sky Arts recent move to become a free-to-air channel, supercharging its mission to increase access to and drive participation in the arts, at a vital time for the cultural sector.<\/p>\n<p>Marina\u2019s Sky Arts takeover will air on Sky Arts this December and will be produced by Northern Town productions.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skygroup.sky\/article\/world-renowned-artist-marina-abromovi-takes-over-sky-arts-channel-for-the-day\">Continues \u2026<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>That\u2019s the same Marina Abramovic, a \u2018performance artist\u2019, who has been linked to the sexual abuse of children and alleged ritual human sacrifice<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":39262,"featured_media":206008,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[57,93,25],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-222033","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the_satanic_salute","category-historic-sexual-abuse","category-The_Media"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222033","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/39262"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=222033"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222033\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":222048,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222033\/revisions\/222048"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/206008"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=222033"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=222033"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=222033"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
