This
is incredibly moving. I found this link on a favorite blog of mine, Cup of Joe. The artist Marina Abramovic did a 2010
performance art piece at the Museum of Modern Art, where she sat in a
chair, and, one by one, people could sit opposite her and look into her
eyes. It was a powerful experience even with strangers, but then her
former love Ulay arrived without her knowledge. This video shows the
moment she sees him. Apparently they had had a passionate love affair
back in the 70s, but when they felt the relationship was fizzling, they
decided to walk the Great Wall of China, each from one end, meeting in
the middle for a last hug and never seeing each other again. Here they
are, meeting once again.
