The Rob Pruitt's Art Awards are a benefit for Guggenheim Museum and White Columns. 15 awards in contemporary art were presented at a show that opened with a restaging of Marina Abramovic's Imponderabilia. The Yogoslavian artist and curator and also vital member of the generation of pioneering performance artists was awarded for her "The Artist is Present" solo show at MoMa New York in March 2010. Her latest film titled MARINA is currently in development.
Earlier this year Marina Abramovic participated along with Britney Spears in an experimental film titled "On Several Regimes of Signs : Art must be beautiful, artists must be beautiful" by Dick Whyte. The film is supposed to be exploring the role of aesthetics and beauty in art.
