This is the final part of a three part series about the legend of performance art: Marina Abramović. In this episode we explore Marina & Ulay's hypnosis inspired performance pieces, we follow them into the Australian outback for their six months living with aborigines, and finally explore what leads to their last performance–walking the Great Wall of China.

Pieces discussed in order of appearance in the episode:

• Hypnosis inspired series (1980): Nature of Mind, Point of Contact, Timeless Point of View, Rest Energy

• Nightsea Crossing (1981-1987)

• Lovers (1988), The Great Wall of China

• The Artist Is Present (2010)
