- Summary:
- Writings of the Vienna Actionists Hermann Nitsch, et al. In the early sixties, the Vienna Actionists created a form of performance art which has since become legendary for the extreme violence of its expression. Their art centered on taboos, the "hidden" secrets of the body, the aesthetics of destruction and the possibilities of regeneration. Fined, jailed, forced into exile at the time, they are now hailed for their contribution to post-war art.
