Marina Abramovic & Ulay

Marina Abramovic and Ulay met in Amsterdam in 1976, instantly becoming lovers and performance art partners. Their relationship lasted for a decade, ending with their symbolic last project - a dramatic walk down the Great Wall of China, in which the artists began at opposite ends, eventually meeting in the middle after 90 days to say their farewells.

I love this.
