This edition documents a seminal performance by Austrian artist Hermann Nitsch, a key figure of the Viennese Actionism movement, known for his provocative and visceral performances exploring the intersections of art, ritual, and human experience. The action took place on June 1, 1977, at the Church of Santa Lucia on Via Castiglione in Bologna.

With striking visual documentation and contextual insights, the publication captures the raw intensity of Nitsch’s performance, where elements of religious symbolism, bodily fluids, and sensory immersion converge to challenge notions of catharsis and transcendence. Featuring powerful images and texts in German, this edition offers a profound exploration of Nitsch’s radical artistic practice, making it a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts of performance art and avant-garde expression.
