Paperback. Condition: New. Hermann Nitsch, one of the most paradigmatic artists of the legendary Wiener Aktionismus, author of performances and installations, paintings and drawings, through his artistic expressions creates a genuine 'total theatre' that unites myth and aesthetics, religious metaphors and everyday life, classicism and archaism, and even a barbaric element, all this in a monumental form that has no equals. In his project for the total work of art, the Orgien Mysterien Theater, Nitsch reveals the ethical and aesthetic reserves of meaning inherent in Wiener Aktionismus, a special form of performance art derived from the re-interpretation of myths and collective ritual praxis and forged by the artist-philosopher, which is manifested in the activity of the masses, who take part in the performance."My actions drill into vivid being, wanting there to be being where there is nothing. I seek the vivid existence that lies deep in tragedy, where destruction and creation pervade each other. I seek intensity, I seek life." - Hermann Nitsch.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "Monet is for me one of the greatest painters who ever existed. He went his way of exploring light relentlessly [.] the viscera of light became visible." A major artist of the Viennese Actionist movement, of which he was one of the founders, Hermann Nitsch, born in Vienna in 1938, died in Mistelbach in April 2022. Internationally recognised as the master of Austrian performance art, the artist developed a powerfully expressive body of work, borrowing from religious dramaturgy to develop a total art that culminated every year since the 1950s in his "Orgien Mysterien Theater", where he invited friends and audiences to six days of uninterrupted festivities and performances.At the end of his career, Hermann Nitsch developed a painting of great vitality, increasingly colourful, always closely linked to his performative acts. Fascinated by Monet's Nympheas, the artist engaged in a dialogue with this masterpiece of Impressionism, whose proximity to his art he emphasised: "In my performances, my expressive and religious painting has become a finished drama, an analytical dramaturgy. What remains to be seen is a frenzy of colour and form that stands out far beyond its content, like the ecstasies of colour in Monet's Water Lilies".The book will bring together a collection of paintings and graphic works produced shortly before his death, chosen directly from the artist's studio.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neu -Hermann Nitsch (1938-2022) war ein bedeutender Wegbereiter des Wiener Aktionismus. Seit 1957 arbeitete er an der Verwirklichung seines zentralen Werkes: Das Orgien-Mysterien-Theater ist ein nonverbales, dramatisches Epos, für dessen vollständige Ausführung der Künstler eine utopische Architektur entworfen hat. Seit 1963 hat Nitsch weltweit in zahlreichen Aktionen entscheidende Elemente des von ihm als sechstägiges ExistenzFest visionierten Spiels vorgestellt. Auf großen Opernbühnen in Wien, Zürich und München hat er seit den 1990er-Jahren auch klassische Opernliteratur inszeniert und dabei die Formensprache des Orgien-Mysterien-Theaters auf die konventionelle Bühne transferiert. Diese zu einer Ausstellung im Wiener Theatermuseum erscheinende Publikation bietet einen detailreichen Einblick in eines der herausforderndsten Werke der Gegenwartskunst und dessen Spiegelung im bürgerlichen Theater. 256 pp. Deutsch.
