– Nobody gets changed by somebody else's experience. What you experience will always stay with you, that is why I like to create a platform for interactions so people can experience something for themselves.

Marina Abramović (born 1946) from Serbia is one of the world's best known performance artists. She is based in New York.

Her art delves into the relationship with her audience, including its intellectual possibilities and physical limitations. Abramović challenges her audiences as she interacts with them.

In 2013 Abramović conceived her work The Scream specifically for the Ekeberg Park. She created a hommage to Edvard Munch's Skrik (The Scream) together with 270 Oslo citizens.

Posed in front of the very same landscape that inspired Munch's famous motif, Oslo's inhabitants screamed out their emotions. 

 Abramović has taken yet another step in making the audience actors in a space where they can get in touch with their own emotions. The outcome is surprising, intense and impelling.

The film The Scream  is on view in the permanent exhibition in the Ekeberg Museum, located in Lund's Hus.
