WORKSHOP Body Senses Beeing

Past event

© Archiv Cibulka Frey


The Viennese actionists Günter Brus, Otto Muehl, Hermann Nitsch and Rudolf Schwarzkogler are internationally recognised as pioneers of body art because they used the human body functions directly and unabashedly as artistic material. For the first time, the body became the exclusive the foreground of art as an exclusive medium of expression. Each of the four artists developed their own individual approach in this context.

For Nitsch in particular, the physical and sensual experience of all aspects of life was at the centre of his entire oeuvre. His concept of the Orgies Mysteries Theatre was based on a synaesthetic perception of art, the interplay of several senses, which should lead to a new experience of existence. The use of animal blood, intestines and colour was intended to create immense sensory impressions were to be evoked so that the participants in the play of his actions reached their limits.

In a joint workshop, the newly opened Vienna Actionism Museum (WAM) and the nitsch museum in Mistelbach are offering the exclusive and unique opportunity in collaboration with the artist Guadalupe Aldrete (long-time assistants of Hermann Nitsch) to sharpen the senses and to directly involve one's own body artistically.
