Times in Artworks, Times in Artworks’ Objects , Future Times in Artworks, Marina AbramovićAbstract
This article examines the past and present contexts of artworks, objects, and audiences in order to propose guidelines for interpreting artworks in "future times." This is achieved by analyzing Marina Abramović’s artwork Balkan Baroque. The analytical method involves using content from the past and present to inspire ideas and imaginations of future artworks, analyzed through the following time periods: 1) Ideas and imaginations from the artist's time period; 2) Ideas and imaginations from the object's time period; and 3) Ideas and imaginations from the viewer's time period. The analysis yields the following findings: 1) The artist’s interpretations across time are connected to the artist’s background. Audiences, with limited experiences in creating meaning, must rely on communication with other media to guide the interpretation of the artwork. 2) The interpretations of the artwork’s objects through time indicate that the objects are connected to events and situations. As audiences engage with the objects, new meanings emerge beyond the original meanings set by the artist. 3) The audiences’ interpretations of the artwork are shaped by their individual backgrounds and experiences.
