"A minute of silence" by Artist Marina Abramovic

- Artist Marina Abramovic was doing a live art performance that consisted of spending one minute of silence with a complete stranger. Many people showed up, but her response to one person in particular gave me the goosebumps, and you’ll soon see why.
At the 1:30 mark, Ulay, her former lover for many years sits down across from her. Marina and Ulay broke up more than 30 years ago and this is the first time that they have seen each other again since then.
This was obviously an emotional and shocking moment for her, and as you can see, she tries to carry on until the end, but seems almost unable to. I was fighting back tears myself with this one. This is really beautiful.
Music by "How I became the Bomb - Ulay, Oh"
They're having an entire conversation with just their eyes. This will always be one of my favorite things ever. They're still so in love after all this time
@@VeggyZ you clearly need to get better sources lol. Sure she's an artist but satanic ritual is a bit much
I thought the same. I think I saw forgiveness there
Love is b...ch sometimes. So painfull see these two fall apart when they love each other so much ;(
You know she is a satanic high priest of the rothschild new world order that eats babies right?
@@missmygamergirl445 no f... way really ?!?
When she saw him and start crying it tells how she deeply inlove with him before . 💔
I am a man and I am not afraid to say this made me cry
xoxox
❤️
So you felt the hand of Satan?
Well two or three tears doesn’t matter😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
This is the only video I've ever seen my father tear up on. It's an ubelievably moving video
This is one of the most BEAUTIFUL encounters I have EVER seen....I heard their entire conversation....If you have ever TRULY loved someone you did too...
Still so powerful. I remember watching this years ago and it still now has the same affect on me.
Imagine having your passion once matched by another in order to have this kind of moment. That's extremely fortunate.
So DEEP...you can read both of their eyes whispering to eachother without a word said....wow..!!
Man, I’d hate to be the next one sitting down after that!!!!!!
I come back to this video, time and time again. It's one of the most beautiful, empowering moments of two individual lives. It always makes me cry.
Its been 15 years since we separate . Meet her in a market, I Still can't forget her. I weep that night.
I’m in a relationship with someone that I know is in love with someone else this deeply but they can’t be together. It hurts knowing he’ll never love me like this but I love him enough I’d let him go back to her. 😢
Please reconsider. Things will never get easier or better for you. You will end up wasting your time and theirs. I was in a relationship with many differences between us, but the emotions were strong so I stayed. Many times I had a “gut feeling” to end it, but ignored the instinct. After 20 years together, he chose to start another family behind my back. The differences were there for him too, he just handled it differently. Now our two children are having to deal with this nightmare. It can never end well if you already start off on the wrong foot. ✌🏼
When was the last time you just looked into the eyes of anyone you care about in silence? Let alone your old love. This kills me in the best way. RIP Ulay.
It's so hard to imagine and heartbreaking to think about deciding to never see someone again after sharing such an intense and deep connection for so many years.
Che meraviglia e che emozione ! Ogni volta che vedo il video mi scendono le lacrime!
I will always love you Dominique.
Of all the confronting uncomforable art they made together... this is their most powerfull masterpiece.... and strangely it is one about Love.
It is the words left unsaid that rings loudest in the heart.
The way she can’t open her eyes, let go of him and her together, to face god-damned reality again
As year has gone by, the Flame has never die
Shall I smile or Shall I cry
The Mind say it's fine, but the tears in my heart never lies
And Here you are , even with age.... the face still remains the same..
Memories of the love and the pain...
Written in stones, written with our names..
This video says so much...I come across it every now and again...
everyone's gangsta till some old love show up in front of you
I cry so much whenever I watch this
I cried to this video many times because I know how heavy that silence can feel…
Simple yet so powerful! This is a replica of my life. I can totally relate and understand what she is going through. Love is very powerful ❤
He knew he couldn't reach out first; yet once he does he doesn't let go till he has no choice, for we know.
I feel and remember. ❤
It always cracks me up to feel people sharing their emotions and how they feel about this powerful depiction knowing that the guy sued her after this.
this video never fails to make me cry
I've watched several "staring" videos and this by far has been the most painful for me 😢😢
I'm so broken right now 💔💔
I didn't know Ulay had passed until I came here, I loved this art piece.
It really helps me if i am in a depression
Artist's are Brilliantly Mad people.. it would take so much courage and strong will to not utter a word even after 22 years .. Love in its truest forms
He did speak ...
This video shows true love, art and the best side of humans.
Not living anymore together does not take away the moments you had in love
Energy in MOTION 💗
Something like that.
+antibling something like that..? e motion = emotion. There's nothing like it....
Jesus. This makes me tear up every single time.
What ever Marina is (some comments now deleted)...I found this beautiful and emotional.
No words needed...
Un video di grande intensita' senza bisogno di parole
I absolutely adore❣️ this i felt every bit of this moment🔥one of the most beautiful moments Ever!
Proves that not all childhood memories has lasted forever !! Relate to this my twin's father we met in 3rd grade .. now we are filing for divorce after 13 years because last we broke up 😎😊.. our parent had agreements now .. my children will be living here with me ..
L'amour, le vrai est impossible !!! 😍 ❤️
Such a beautiful moment!
Whatever their story is that moment was genuine
He was so handsome!
i feel like the reason he walked away so fast was because he didnt want to cry in front of her
So beautiful ❤️
You can't tell me the song doesn't complete the vibes 🥺🥺
Example of true love 💕
I would NOT like to have been the next person to sit in that seat.
This is awesome..I literally did the same thing when I got my gc8 last month lol
I wish I knew the words they spoke to each other.
This was intense
Who else has someone from their past, that they wish they could experience this same thing with them. I know I do. 🙋🏻♂️
"If I should meet thee,
after long years,
how should I greet thee,
with silence and tears."
Passion in the eyes where words can’t dwell.
To fasten what you feel like, under a curse I fell.
Just sat in my mind with a look like a spell.
One minute with no words but your eyes can tell.
Some give more than needed but we’ve been to hell.
Goodbye again loved one, you have tears to sell.
Did you write this or is this from a poem
@@SnowmanPickins same poem or did you write this?
I wrote this myself
@@feather2643 it's called When We Two Parted by Lord Byron
The mind knows time but the heart does not.
Real passion and love
Beautifully said
That quote has so much truth!
What a great saying...
From whence thou comes with such wisdom?
i always come back to this video every couple of months... you can truly feel the passion when they look at each other
Monica Maroney i was touched by ur comment nd i dunno who u r but i was gonna remember whoever u r...
ur X youtube viewer chandu
SO special, SO intense!
i wonder what she was thinking every time I see this......
Monica Maroney do you still come back after a couple of months?
Monica Maroney authenticity😐😑👀💜
I think the greatest part of this is she had her eyes closed and when she opened them the emotions in that split second.
Absolutely amazing. People who have had true love will understand the depth of it. Loved it.
yess
shrruti bhargava you ain't kidding
shrruti bhargava they ended up back together and he ended up suing her in court. life is crazy I tell ya
What??
You should see how much she cries and pouts when she meets her true love, Satan.
That moment when she slowly pulls away her hands and he keeps them there, like he doesn't want to let her go again
So powerful
And then he sued her
@@adalvldadalvld I'm trying to feel something here, I'm laterally crying and laughing because of your comment wtf 😭 😂
@@adalvldadalvld lol
I think Ulay wanted or caused the separation before their china walk.
Straziante
Very few things I have seen have moved me this much. Couldn’t stop the tears and emotion when I watched this. I know exactly how they were feeling.
Too bad it was all bs
Yea, not gonna lie, made my eyes water right at that moment
Have you ever loved someone?
Me too ❤
This video, in its simplicity, is one of the most moving things I've ever seen. It makes my eyes watery every time I watch it. It's just awesome. After 20 years, you suddenly find in front of you a man that has probably been the love of your life... how can you hold back your tears?
Not even worshiping satan and drinking semen and blood can hold back her tears, eh?
it was a SET up and you fell for it
U spirit cook up another batch of love, darling. It's obvious.
Oh y
I agree! So intense...so deep. Read their story.
Every time I see her cry, I cry. It brings out such emotion in me. Her eyes say it all.
Me 2.
... wow. You guys really need to do some research, and a bit of introspection to go with it. You're exactly what the corrupt, satanic elite wanted - easily influenced, gullible, and over-emotional, and all-too-accepting / unquestioning. I really do wish you guys could see this game for what it is, because it's a bit sad watching you guys idolize someone like this, for something like this. This is probably not your first indication that you're part of a twisted cult but it's definitely a powerful one.
...snap out of it, you don't have all that much time left to do so, and I'm being dead serious. -sigh-
@@VeggyZ calm down holy one. It is not satanic to feel emotions.
@@VeggyZ i don’t think it’s satanic to feel an emotion? they were just sharing something, i don’t see why you got all upset
he means it comes off as a facade too make you feel for them then they got you locked in there trap.
This is by far the most beautiful thing on the internet to date. The artistic level expressing the depth of love is beyond. After 40 years that love existed just the same. I adore the instant acknowledgment, the expression, and the silence which put them in tears, the fact he tried to hide his emotion with his head nods, and she felt it all. Also the fact that she felt that depth and had to show it to the next person in there minute of silence. The metaphor of this entire exchange is wild. Watch it over and over and understand the different levels. It’s like an onion peeling back the emotional layers. I felt this to my core and appreciate the artist sharing this vulnerability with all of us.
What a load of pretentious rubbish.
Wow that is one of the best descriptions of the emotions they were expressing out of most of the other descriptions. But there are many great words describing this moment it's difficult to pick one
While your explanation is very on-point, what I truly love about this moment is that it perfectly captures why words / language is wholly incapable of describing things like emotions fully. With real emotions you just know, and you can see it in others and also know through them, yet not fully understand it logically or put it into words that would be able to transmit the emotion.
So sad to hear about Ulay's passing today. He'll live forever through his art.
Phelippe Oliveira fuck. rip ulay
Phelippe Oliveira 🥺
🥺
Phelippe Oliveira nooooo
Phelippe Oliveira rip
2020 anyone? 😢
No one
yes
Yes

Yes. Again. A few times every year. And then I watch the documentary about “The artist is present” and tell other people they must watch too

When he shakes his head looking at her ❤️
He was thinking "I can't believe you ate that human waste last time you were spirit cooking" - I reckon.
look it up.
VeggyZ okay?
Thats where i broke down with tears😭
@@VeggyZ He can belive it, they are both performance artists.
@@VeggyZ Classic! LMFAO!
Sometimes when the relationship ends the love doesn't. ❤
True...
😭😭😭😭💔❗
Thats the perfect way to put it!!!!
I wish that one day I open my eyes and I may see my father in front of me, looking in my eyes, smiling.. and I get to hold his hands once.. for just one minute.
You are lucky, or blessed, whatever to have felt such love in your heart on this earth. Treasure that and the good times you shared with him.
I would run away
You made me cry 😢 I lost my father not long ago because of Covid he’s just 58 and I am still young and my little sister don’t understand much she was the one who got infected by Covid first the house is very empty without him so I know now what it’s mean to have no father 😢😢😢😢
@@midnightstars5470 so sorry for your loss :(
If I see my father I'll butcher him.
I must have watched this a dozen times. I cry every time. Like now, as I type.
Me too. I love this
+marsha eisner - same as you, I have cried more than a dozzen times. I have shared it on Facebook, although some people don't get it but for me is touches my soul.
sames.
marsha eisner they ended up back together and he ended up suing her in court. life is crazy I tell ya
marsha eisner WHAT?
When You Love SomeOne So Deeply, You Just Can't Forget Them. No Matter What Happen! Feelings Can't Be Expressed In Words......
Ever experienced it? I have... Still cant forget her, even though i really want to forget her. It is not possible after break up of 5 years.
+karwan karwanko same
haritoo9 they ended up back together and he ended up suing her in court. life is crazy I tell ya
Animal Kindness, we get it. Proud of you for knowing that information. Okay? Is that what you want when you keep posting OVER AND OVER?
Who was Ulay anyway ?
It's like this involuntary weeping that occurs the moment you connect with the pain of your own past Loves lost; it's the quickening of her breath, the widening & watering of her eyes, and then ultimately the desperate acceptance in her expression as he gets up... and walks away. Closing her eyes - she tries to hold on to the image of him in her head... sadness suddenly veiling across her face as she reluctantly accepts that the moment has passed. #fcknlove
beautiful stated... for but a moment their lifetime they spent together flashed in front of their eyes... it's so simple, but genuinely beautiful in its simplicity.
@hope acosta: you have beautifully stated and described everything that happened here. Sad and beautiful. The pain of love.
Hope Acosta this is beautiful like a poetry.
Man thats deep
beautiful words suited for a beautiful moment :)
One of the most powerful videos that has ever existed!! 🎨❤️💙🎨
Melancholy, nostalgia, regret. Those must have been the unspoken emotions between them. Intensely beautiful
As we all sit and imagine if we were in front of that "one" person again. 💔😢
Exactly.
I’ve had one true love in my life. When I saw this, all those memories came flooding back. I’m sitting here sobbing. If only I had this kind of opportunity.
Don’t worry. It’s all bs. Ulay took her to court after this and she was forced to pay him royalties
@@adalvldadalvld holy shit you are right. I looked it up. I can't believe I cried to this bs wtf 😡
@@adalvldadalvld I took my ex to court for child support but that doesn't mean the love and hurt isn't real. It's never that black and white when it comes to love.
I'm just glad I wasn't next...how do you top that!!??
Lol that's exactly what I though!!
darren pilkington You are so on point. Lol
You don't try to top it. Life isn't a contest. You just share moments with others.
lmfao
darren pilkington bring her some snacks? :)
I come back every few years or so to watch this when I feel I need to see it. Their backstory makes this even more profound a piece of art. The human experience. It's a beautiful mess.
2:50 She finally lets go for one last time and he walks away as if it was the final conclusion to their relationship, engaging one another with 1 last touch. True art that shows emotion and colours represented between the two artists through an exchange of eye contacts, Bravo.
Lewis J actually they ended up back together for a time and he ended up suing her in court for money of past works. life is crazy I tell ya
poooh keey What more can one expect from devil worshipers? ...aside from torture and sacrifice, and twisted rituals.
VeggyZ can you relax on the shtick? Alex Jones having wayyy too much free time making up TH-cam accounts to post this drivel.
@@VeggyZwhy do you call them devil worshippers? I'm curious. Are they involved in some sort of a cult?
Thank you TH-cam for putting this in my algorithm so I can rewatch this masterpiece by the best artist in her field of artistry
I’ve never once watched this without being moved to tears. Absolute genius.
This is going to have me in tears for as long as I live
Nov 1 2020
I'm here once again watching the two lovers staring at each other as they ponder what would it be like, if they didn't have to go separate ways. It still breaks me, every time.
Если бы он не предал и .не изменил ей с проводником....любовь....👎
The way he looks at her 💔 😭 we all have that one person that our ‘soul’ belongs too. Sometimes words are not needed and silence can speak a thousand words 💚💚
He sued her shortly after this and she had to pay him royalties for their previous work.
I've seen this video several times and each time I watch it I get so emotional and teary-eyed. You can just see and feel the deep emotion when they see each other after so many years have past. It reminds me of the one and only love of my life that I lost 30+ years ago (my own fault). If I had the chance to sit across from him for just a few minutes and look into his eyes, I would probably lose it. Mike will always and forever be in my heart.
💜💜💜💜🌈
Hope you are in a beautiful chapter of life and that it includes Love in any form.
This gets me every time I watch it. The surprise on her face when she opens her eyes and the tears streaming down her face. You can tell they really loved each other.
This clip is equivalent to one full love story movie! When they hold hands, it was so meaningfull!
Every time I come here, I WITNESS THE SAME AUSPICIOUS FEELING I FELT WHEN I WATCHED IT THE 1st TIME!
LOVE AND TRUST ARE THE ONLY PRECIOUS THINGS ON THIS EARTH, NOTHING ELSE!
No matter how hard you try, you will never ever forget your first true love
I’ve watched this video at least a million times over the past few years. I’ve never felt such emotion
I'm just now learning about this woman, what has been
said isn't what I see here.
Reading your comment about not getting to experience love is hard to believe.
All of us love that one person truly madly deeply with every cell of our body every depth of the soul.. That love they found in each other.. That love doesn't lead to a life long companionship for all.. I'm glad they got to experience it.
I was lucky enough to be at MoMa when she was doing this show! I'd be lying if I knew how significant it was, and I didn't appreciate it, and I didn't wait in line to participate! I regret all that I didn't do that day, so take heed fellow travelers and do those things in the moment so you don't regret it later.
I’m convinced that crying while looking at somebody’s eyes is a form of telepathy if the individuals are truly connected ❤
When she started crying, so did I! This is amazing, the moment to just connect to someone can bring out such an emotion in you. Heartbreaking/warming.
Nothing like staring into the face of a Lucifarian.
Oh just stop it! Your scared little inner child needs healing.
HeD WTF are you talking about? 👹
@@paistekid spirit cooking..research
Youre still using that term created by the cia to describe people that question the narrative. That shows you're just another brainwashed parrot.
My ex girlfriend and I have that same intensity, 8 yrs gone now and we both feel the same way about each other.. both with new partners, you only get that love once in a life time, .....She is still the love of my life, I sent this clip to her about 5yrs ago, she sent it back to me at 2am this morning.....
Why dont u get back together?
@@mehreen8220 We did last year, it didn't work.
No właśnie, dlaczego do siebie nie wrócicie ?
How Ulay stretches and prepares himself before sitting down. Oh my heart.
it's really beautiful. I did it after 26 years with my first love. I'll never leave her again!
geotek geotek - are you for real? Just reconnected with the love of my life after 25 years. He’s been celibate this entire time. I’ve been “wilding” like people are a chocolate box sampler. The thing is - he’s the only one who’s ever seen me. So, i will throw it all to the wind and gamble for love then die for it if necessary and that’s how it goes sometimes.
@@sarai7197 But you're used goods :/ Why would he want you back after you had your fun :o
@@evathespeaker9537 bahahahaha that was epic
@@sarai7197 how many STD's have you collected :) ''chocolate box'' *pukes*
Knowing the back story, this song always makes me tear up with sadness. Rest In Perfect Peace, Ulay.
This is exactly how I feel. I just lost the love of my life for what I fear is the final time. We've been going on and off since September. I've never been so in love or wanted anything more than I want a life with this girl. I would give my own life to have the life I though I'd finally get with her. I will always regret this. I will always regret not being farther along in my growth when I was faced with a love like this. I wasn't ready, but I was getting ready fast and sometimes that's not enough. I feel like this was the most cosmic prank the universe could have pulled. Why couldn't I have been better for her. I will have this regret until the day I die and frankly I can't wait. This reminds me a lot of myself because even if I was to be seated in front of her like this in 50 years , I'd feel the exact same. I'd break down instantly. This is the absolute hardest day of my life, and there are 40-50 more years of waking up to this same day
You wrote an incredible post. If the people I loved expressed this to me I'd listen. (This isn't advice)
Please say hi if you need an encouragement or to update.
True love never dies even when lovers are no longer together.
