Marina Abramovic? is born on November 30 in Belgrade, former Yugoslavia, to an affluent family with politically active parents. Vojin and Danica Abramovic?, who were Yugoslav partisans during World War II, continue their engagement in General Tito?s communist party. For their contributions during the war they are awarded high positions in the public sector; her father works with state security and her mother becomes head of the Museum of Art and the Revolution in Belgrade. While her parents make their political careers, Marina spends her first years living with her maternal grandmother. Milica Rosic is a devotee of the Orthodox Church, and her early childhood is deeply influenced by her grandmother?s faith.http://www.modernamuseet.se/stockholm/en/exhibitions/marina-abramovic/biography-marina-abramovic/
