- A slide show of the performance "Rhythm 0" by Serbian artist Marina Abramovic in which she stands impassively and put herself completely in the hands of her audience.
- A 3-part variation in the Balkan Erotic Epic Series presenting a double mirror projection of Balkan Erotic Epic: Marina Abramovic Massaging Breasts (2005) on each side of the central video workpiece Balkan Erotic Epic: Women Massaging Breasts (2005) shown on vertical wall-mounted display panels.
- Serbian performance artist Marina Abramovic is cutting a five-pointed star around her belly button with a razor blade.
- This multi-channel video installation, consisting of seven short video works presented on vertical wall-mounted display panels, is based on Marina Abramovic's research into Balkan folk culture and its use of the erotic.
- Balkan Erotic Epic explores the sexual aspects of Serbian folklore. Ancient myths that have trickled into everyday household remedies or explanations are juxtaposed with the joys of the female and male sexual forms from which all human life originates. Functioning as both sexual liberation and reinvented modern myth, Balkan Erotic Epic is a display of the need for a cultural change in viewpoint around sex.
- 7- channel video installation (color, no sound), first performed at the MoMA, New York, which explores the complex relationship between artist and audience, as the performer is pushing past perceived limits of the body and mind.
- The artist is lying outdoors on a metal bunk bed as a storm seems to approach. Metaphorically, her body holds an electrical source and becomes a transmitter and conductor of energy as the current flows through it.
- Presents a folkloric image of the artist riding a white horse in the countryside while carrying a large white flag. Neither she nor the horse move as we hear a voice-over singing and humming a Serbian song dedicated to the conquered hero.
- The multi-channel installation is based on Marina Abramovic's research into Balkan folk culture and its use of the erotic. Obscene objects and male and female genitals have a very important function in the fertility.
- A video mosaic of 108 images, each showing a Tibetan monk or nun, chanting in meditative abandon.
- A 9-channel video installation consisting of nine 30-minute "dragon head" self-portraits, made through the years following the artist's separation from German-born performance artist Ulay.
- Ulay (German-born artist Frank Uwe Laysiepen) and Serbian artist Marina Abramovic both balance each other on opposite sides of a drawn bow and arrow, with the arrow pointed at Abramovic's heart.
- Serbian artist Marina Abramovic is devouring a large raw onion, while reciting a litany of things she's tired of.
- A five-pointed star made of wood is set on fire. The artist walks around it and throws hair clumps and toe-nail clippings into the fire at each point of the star (8 mm film transferred to digital video in 2011, no sound, b/w).
- Shows the artist whipping herself with a lash until her back turns red and her body starts to tremble.
- A 3-channel video installation showing three shirtless male dancers (from Asian, European, and African origins) aggressively dancing to tribal drums and music, with the artist's point of view exclusively focused on their pelvis.
- A video of the performance Relation in Movement: The Van, 1975-1980 (1980) where Marina Abramovic and Ulay drive a Citroën type H van round and round in a circle inside a city square in Paris.
- The artist is seen aggressively combing her long hair. With a brush in one hand and a comb in the other, she works on her face and hair, while repeating the sentence "art must be beautiful, artist must be beautiful", as if she is in pain.
