Marina Abramovic and Ole

Both Marina Abramovic and Funk Ube Lyssim (known as Ule) rose to prominence in the performing arts in the seventies. They were making themselves known as 'two heads in one body'. They lived a nomadic life. He traveled to different villages and cities in Europe. The performance was also there. The artistic collaboration of the two matched their personalities.

He used to put himself in some dangerous and strange situations to surprise the audience with his performance. An example is the show 'Relation in Time'. Where they tied their hair together for 17 hours. The duo also performed a performance of slapping each other in the face until it reached an unbearable level.

One of their performances titled 'Rest Energy' is still quite talked about. They were in this dangerous position of keeping their body weight and balance on the bow and arrow for 4 minutes and 10 seconds. The arrow was pointed at Abramovich. A minor carelessness could have caused a fatal accident. Their deep trust in each other made them constantly popular.

They decided to get married to deepen their understanding. But why do two artists in a normal or traditional marriage! They plan to walk from both ends of the world's oldest and longest wall and start a new journey of life in the middle. This 13 thousand mile long wall looks like a dragon. And there was a lot of interest in this walk after the announcement of this artist duo.

Chinese authorities took 5 years to allow these artists. On March 30, 1988, Marina Abramovic and Ule set sail from the Dragon's Head and Tail. The two walked from both sides and faced each other. But this time, the journey of separation begins, not being together. After walking for 90 days, this artist couple ended their relationship by standing in the middle of the great wall.

The issue of not meeting is quite confusing. So the reason for the end of the relationship is intriguing. Basically, within five years of waiting, the relationship of both deteriorated due to multiple reasons. They were both polygamous. Marina on the other hand wanted to be famous. But he was not at all woolly.
This conflict also widens the gap between the two. However, walking from both ends of the Great Wall and meeting at one place, they turned this meeting into an occasion of separation rather than reunion, which their fans and followers could not even imagine. Needless to say, this strange incident has aroused quite a response among everyone.
