Rhythm 0

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhythm_0

Summary: Rhythm 0 was a six-hour performance art piece by Serbian artist Marina Abramović in 1974. She stood still while the audience interacted with her using 72 objects, including a gun and a bullet. The work aimed to explore the public's behavior in such situations. It began gently but escalated to violence, with her clothes cut off and minor assaults carried out. The performance ended without major incident, but Abramović felt violated and learned that the audience could potentially kill in such circumstances.
