Consisting of a series of 28 photographic works partially obscured by white correction fluid, also played on an accompanying slide projection, Freeing the Horizon (1973) represents Abramović’s enigmatic and systematic erasure of a number of important buildings from the Belgrade skyline, many of which, coincidentally, the artist later discovered were physically obliterated by the NATO bombings of 1999 as part of the Kosovo War.
MARINA ABRAMOVIĆ: "I was born in the main street of the Belgrade. I felt really being in Belgrade in some way suffocated me. I needed space. I needed to see new horizons, and there was always around me just buildings, buildings, buildings. So, I started taking photographs of the main squares and important area of the center of Belgrade. And in the time didn't exist Photoshop, so I just with paint, actually removed the buildings and get this imaginary horizon that I can see far away".
"When the War came in Belgrade with Bosnia some of the buildings been bombed and they really don't exist anymore. And so something that I was aware that sometimes the artist can make certain prediction of the future."
