As part of its mission to broaden the Greek public’s access to a wide variety of contemporary art forms, NEON is proud to be partnering with the Marina Abramović Institute (MAI) for the first time on a major collaboration of Performance and Immaterial Art in Athens.  AS ONE is the largest and most ambitious project in Greece to date dedicated to performance art, placing this contemporary art form in the spotlight and engaging and inspiring the Greek public.

Under the leadership of Marina Abramović, MAI works to present collaborative projects and to promote young and aspiring artists. In AS ONE, NEON and MAI aim to help foster a new generation of Greek performance artists.

Hosted at the Benaki Museum (Pireos St. Annexe) over a period of seven weeks, AS ONE consists of the Abramović Method, newly commissioned performance pieces by Greek artists, and an extensive program of lectures, workshops, discussions and other public participation events.
