A quick zip through MoMA to see William Kentridge yielded a side show (almost literally) of Marina Abramovic staring down a few intrepid museum-goers. White shirt red sneakers lasted a while. Green shoes didn't last very long at all. And white shirt with black and white scarf seemed to have staying power. The guards told my friend Kay and me that the longest Mano à Marina has lasted for seven hours (as of Sunday aft, March 28); he wouldn't divulge how the artist deals with the call of nature. Kay, whose eagle-eye serves her well in many capacities, noted that the tag to Ms. Abramovic's shirt was showing, but we dared not dash up to helpfully tuck it in. Just as I finished saying, "I don't see any 'No Photos' signs," a different guard busted me. Here are my shh-don't-tell shotss of a well-recorded performance piece.
