VIENNESE SEASON : ACTIONISM
6 Mar-20 Mar 2014
Austin / Desmond Fine Art
London WC1B 3BN
Overview
We are pleased to announce our forthcoming exhibition Viennese Season: This is the first major survey of Viennese Actionism in the UK. The exhibition will present the work of Günter Brus, Otto Mühl, Hermann Nitsch, and Rudolf Schwarzkogler. Virtually over by 1970, the radical movement was short-lived but rich and dense in each artist’s output. Performance works, aktions, were at the heart of their work, extending the use and meaning of painting. Blood, animal carcasses, razor blades, and ropes were all used as implements to create these aktions.
