The Class of Marina Abramovic è il nome di un gruppo di giovani artisti della Hochschule für Bildende Künste di Braunschweig (Germania) che si è formato sotto la guida di Marina Abramovic, celebre esponente della body art, considerata una delle più importanti performer degli ultimi trent’anni. Abramovic insegna a Braunschweig dal 1997 trasmettendo agli studenti la sua esperienza di performer e le sue conoscenze attraverso lezioni, workshop, mostre e dibattiti. Fra gli obbiettivi del suo insegnamento vi è anche quello di sostenere ed aiutare i giovani dell’accademia a diventare artisti professionisti, creando opportunità per presentare il loro lavoro in mostre presso gallerie, musei, kunstverein e teatri.
Al Padiglione d'Arte Contemporanea di Milano, il 6 e 7 giugno 2003, The Class of Marina Abramovic presenta “As soon as possibile. Performance loop”, una serie di performance "living installations". Con questo termine si intendono performance di lunga durata, realizzate con media e tecniche diversi, nelle quali il corpo è il mezzo espressivo fondamentale, il comune denominatore alle diverse poetiche di ciascun performer.
I visitatori avranno modo di muoversi nello spazio del PAC, nell'arco delle ore di apertura al pubblico, avvicinandosi ai giovani performer che realizzano contemporaneamente diverse "living installations". Il PAC diventerà così il luogo di un evento collettivo senza precedenti, non paragonabile alla classica mostra, e fonte di un'esperienza viva e attiva anche per gli spettatori. Le due giornate presenteranno due programmi differenti.
Il progetto presentato al Padiglione d’Arte Contemporanea rientra nella programmazione artistica di Jean-Hubert Martin per il 2003, e nasce da una recente esperienza fatta dal gruppo The Class of Marina Abramovic allo Spazio Viafarini di Milano. Il successo già riscosso dall’evento, realizzato in forma sperimentale, il suo carattere innovativo e l’interesse attuale per il tema della performance, hanno indotto lo Spazio Viafarini a proporre al PAC una nuova edizione del progetto che, in tal modo, sarà realizzato in forma più ampia in uno spazio pubblico della città. L’evento sarà anche un’occasione per ricordare la notorietà e il ruolo fondamentale di Marina Abramovic nella storia della performance: sabato alle ore 16.00, nell’ambito di un incontro al PAC, Marina Abramovic e Jean-Hubert Martin dialogheranno con il pubblico sul tema della performance. Sarà inoltre a disposizione dei visitatori una documentazione video su altre performance realizzate dal gruppo.
Dopo Milano, altri due prestigiosi appuntamenti attendono The Class of Marina Abramovic: il gruppo sarà presente alla Biennale di Venezia con una performance collettiva nell’ambito della mostra “Recycling of Future” (prodotta dal Consorzio Venezia Nuova e dalla Facoltà di Design e Arti) e, successivamente, il 27 giugno, al Museum Fridericianum di Kassel.

"Angela Vettese è in Italia una delle persone che più ha fatto per promuovere la ricerca artistica contemporaneamente, facendosi iniziatrice di molte operazioni che hanno creato benefici e conseguenze a lungo termine, tra cui la tenuta di uno spazio sulle pagine e culturali del quotidiano Il Sole 24 Ore, l’avvio del corso di arti visive presso l’università d’architettura IUAV a Venezia, la creazione di corsi quali quelli di Fondazione Antonio Ratti, di premi quali il Premio Furla, la gestione di residenze quale la Fondazione Bevilacqua La Masa, la scrittura degli unici testi scolastici sil contemporaneo editi in Italia, la direzione di musei quali quelli Civico di Modena e la Fondazione Pomodoro. Tra tutte le cose che ha fatto, guadagnandosi il rispetto di così tante persone, Angela ha anche sostenuto Viafarini, con consigli e progetti, durante quasi 30 anni. Per questo motivo è Presidente onorario di Viafarini".

"Uno dei ruoli più importanti per dare vita a una mostra è quello dell allestitore, figura poco nota per il ruolo determinante che invece ricopre. L’allestitore è di solito un artista lui stesso, ed è il personaggio di cui davvero l’autore della mostra si fida, al di là del curatore. È la sua baby sitter, Il suo tranquillante. Ci sono a Milano alcune figure importanti che si sono alternate nelle varie gallerie, e Stefano Dugnani per un periodo è stata una di quelle. Ma sicuramente la più longeva e riconosciuta dagli artisti è la persona di Mihovil Markulin, che collabora con Viafarini dal 2001, dal primi progetto con Marina Abramovic. Mihovil ha studiato allAccademia di Brera e poi si è specializzato come assistente degli artisti, lavorando anche alla Fondazione Antonio Ratti e alle gallerie Susi Shamah e Francesca Kaufmann".

Daniel Mueller-Friedrichsen, "Starless tour".
Mueller- Friedrichsen appear with the habit of a star in a limousine with bodyguards and disapear in a entrance Throwing gimmicks to the public, taking pictures with a polaroidcamera and signing them while developing process.The piece calling for interaction to create a charismatic space. His work is intent on demonstrating that there is no distinction between the sacrosanct galleryspace and the everyday contingency ‘out there’.
The performance Starless tour deals with the language of massmedia and is a study of masshysteria and group dynamics.
Duration: 7: min.
Performed at Luna Park (Halle für Kunst Lueneburg) 2000, Expo 2000 Hannover and at Irish Museum of Modern Art 2001.
Daniel Mueller- Friedrichsen`s work have always appeared to be about the presence and absence of the body and his trace with minimal gestures . His work is a compact structure obout his personal marking of a space of time, which transformed into a movement or image and create a charismatic field.
Strategies of actions and rules of language are proved by their motivation.the pieces questioning language as an instrument of power. He focuses attention how language is adapted by individuals and communities. He uses language in a way like chewing gum with various possibilitys and different meanings which includes also an irrational potency and openess.
Daniel Mueller- Friedrichsen is a German artist lives and works in Berlin. He has been participating in various international exhibitions and since 2000 is one of Marina Abramovic´s student at the HBK Braunschweig.

Declan Rooney, "Parish Newsletter".
In the performative aspect of his practice, Declan Rooney seeks to re-inhabite the body through experience, memory, cultural history and tradition. Ideas of imitation and falsity, passion and obsession, contrition and folly are demonstrated in works that are both ritualised and spontaneous. He is interested in the communal and the collective, the public and the private and in creating a proactive and reactive dialogue with the audience.
´Parish Newsletter´ is an exploration of a public and private persona and the frictions that exist between these two projected realities. The work also looks at the means of disseminating the moral and ethical viewpoints, which make up these personas and the inherent responsibilities that exist in both a social and formal setting.
Declan Rooney was born in 1977 in Ireland studied Fine Art at the National College of Art of Design in Dublin, graduating in 1998. Rooney works in various mediums including installation, photography, video, object making and live performance. He has exhibited in various group exhibitions in Ireland as well as co-ordinating and curating interdisciplinary festivals and exhibitions. He is currently based in Ireland and Germany
Dorte Strehlow, "Levitation, second try".

Dorte Strehlow is living and working in Braunschweig. After educations to physiotherapist and dancer she is now studying Fine arts in the class of Marina Abramovic.

Melati Suryodarmo, "Alé Lino".
EXERGY – butter dance
There are moments
Which I never expect to be happened
Which are exploded when I loose my view
Which remain empty when I want to fulfil
Accident is just one moment
Silence is just one moment
Happiness is just one moment
This is just one moment
Of being caught by the moment
Melati dances on the butter
Melati Suryodarmo´s performances concern with cultural, social and political aspects, in which she articulates through her body. She has high physically arresting with sharp confidence and sensuality to her movement. The arrangement overtones to her performances were never overworked but gave the pieces an edgy closeness.
In her performances, she uses specific objects, which are abstracting her conceptual thoughts but at the same time bringing the public into the daily facts.
Melati Suryodarmo born 1969 in Surakarta Indonesia, lives and works in Braunschweig. She is graduated in International Relations and Political Sciences in Bandung, Indonesia. 1994 She moved to Germany and began her study at the Hochschule für Bildende Künste Braunschweig, with Mara Mattuschka, Anzu Furukawa and Marina Abramovic.

Before I was 21 years old, I really knew nothing about sex and I have never spoken the word about “Sex“. I have a lot of questions in my mind at that time, for example: “ Why does woman become pregnant?“ “Where do I come from?“ “ why do my parents make a quarrel?“ Until my girlfriend asked me, what I knew about sex? I was very busy since that day.“
