En el ao 1974, la artista serbia Marina Abramovi# coloc alrededor de su cuerpo setenta y dos objetos divididos en dos categoras: objetos de placer y objetos de dolor. Luego invit al pblico a que los usase sobre su cuerpo, transformndose, de esta manera, en otro objeto ms. El fin era observar el comportamiento humano ante la indefensin. Cuentan que Abramovi# estuvo a punto de perder la vida. Al fin y al cabo, lo fcil siempre fue hacer dao. Al fin y al cabo, lo difcil siempre es amar. Decir puedes hacerme lo que quieras es una invitacin al dao, pero tambin es un gesto de confianza ciega, es decir, de entrega. Con el hilo conductor de aquella puesta en escena, Miguel Gane, uno de los poetas ms ledos de su generacin, reflexiona sobre las personas que poseen nuestro corazn, sobre cmo, a travs del amor, nos ponemos en manos de otros hasta tal punto de que quien te cura tambin te acaba hiriendo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Miguel Gane, one of the most widely read poets of his generation, reflects on the people who own our hearts and how, through love, we give others the power to hurt us even as they make us whole.
In 1974, Serbian performance artist Marina Abramovic surrounded herself with seventy-two objects, divided into two categories: pleasure and pain. She invited her audience to use them on her body, thereby transforming it into just one more object. Her goal was to observe how humans behaved when faced with defenselessness. By the end of the performance, it is said Abramovic's very life was in danger. Ultimately, inflicting pain was the easy part. The hardest thing is always love. To say "do what you want with me" is an invitation to pain, but also a gesture of blind trust, of submission. Using Abramovic's performance as his reference point, Miguel Gane, one of the best-known poets of his generation, reflects on the people who own our hearts and how, through love, we give others the power to hurt us even as they make us whole.
