Marina Abramovic's Silent Birthday Celebration: VICE News Tonight on HBO

The world’s most famous performance artist, Marina Abramovic, celebrated her 70th birthday with a party at New York’s Guggenheim Museum last week. “I really like the idea of 70,” Abramovic told VICE News correspondent Mary H.K. Choi. “I like the idea of being wise, I like the idea of looking back to my life and saying goodbye to everything I’ve done.” After the event, Abramovic was headed to India to seek holistic treatment in solitude, a near-annual tradition for her. “At 70, you realize you have two choices: You can make age your enemy, or you can make it your friend,” Abramovic told the event’s crowd. “I have decided to make my age my friend.” Subscribe to VICE News here: http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-VICE-News Check out VICE News for more: http://vicenews.com Follow VICE News here: Facebook:   / vicenews   Twitter:   / vicenews   Tumblr:   / vicenews   Instagram:   / vicenews   More videos from the VICE network: https://www.fb.com/vicevideo
