Hello everybody,
Last Saturday 8/11 I visited the 'Hermann Nitsch museum' in Mistelbach (near Vienna, Austria) - - I found it very interesting! Nitsch's work may be of interest to some of you other guys too, I especially think of Dimitris&co. Nitsch is one of the 1960s Vienna Actionists and explores e g the relationship between religion, blood, body (human&animal) and ritualistic acts. Spectacular (yet controversial) staged 'orgies' with dozens of performers, dead animals, liquids&organs etc... Nitsch's most famous (recent) project is called 'Orgien Mysterien Theater' (no need for translation:-).

Just put 'Hermann Nitsch' in Google (search Pictures) and you find A LOT more.
Best,
Joonas
