John Bonafede, 50, is seeking damages for emotional distress, career interruption, humiliation and other damages. He performed naked in a performance for the 2010 retrospective “ Marina Abramovic : The Artist is Present” The lawsuit takes place almost 14 years after the exhibition.
New York's Adult Survivors Act, which gave people an additional window to file complaints of sexual misconduct, expired in November, but there was an agreement to extend this case. "The objective is to guarantee the safety of the artists," explains the lawyer.
