Marina Ambramovic & Ulay - Death Self (1977)
This performance consisted of the two artists seated in front of each other, connected at the mouth. They took in each other’s breaths until all of their available oxygen had been used up. The performance lasted only 17 minutes, resulting in both artists collapsing unconscious to the floor, having filled their lungs with carbon dioxide. This personal piece explored the idea of an individual’s ability to absorb the life of another person, exchanging and destroying it.

Michael Fassbender’s smile is an actual thing
At the Irish Film and Television Awards (IFTA) this year Gleeson caused a stir when he and actor friend Francois Civil both decided to pretend they were Michael Fassbender, flashing megawatt smiles (with as many teeth as they could manage) at the rows of photographers.
“Oh yeah, Michael and his hundred tooth smile!” laughs Gleeson. “You know what that was? That’s coming from a place of pure love and admiration, you know what I mean?
“It was the IFTAs and he wasn’t able to be there and we were really sad about it. It was one of those things where we said we’re not as important as Michael, but maybe if we pretend to be him people will take our picture. And it worked!”
