Description: Hermann Nitsch : Life and Work: Recorded by Danielle Spera, Paperback by Nitsch, Hermann, ISBN 1948701626, ISBN-13 9781948701624, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US The oral autobiography of the controversial Vienna Aktionist, with archival materials and additional writings by Nitsch A pioneer of Vienna’s postwar avant-garde and the most notorious member of the Vienna Aktionist group, Hermann Nitsch (1938–2022) united performance, painting and musical composition in dramatic, often blood-soaked rituals. Newly translated into English from the original German, this oral autobiography offers the readers Nitsch’s life story in his own words. Over the course of an in-depth interview with Austrian journalist Danielle Spera, he recounts his family history, early childhood, the evolution of his artistic practice and the fraught reception of his work, as well as his various romantic and financial struggles. The interview is illustrated with images of his work, in the studio and in action; archival photographs; and other ephemeral material, such as flyers and news clips. Excerpts from Nitsch’s writings, including "Blood Organ Manifesto" and "Verbal Poetry of the Orgies Mysteries Theatre," punctuate the interview between Spera and the artist.
