Hermann Nitsch. Das Sein - zur theorie des orgien mysterien theaters

Dieses theoretische Hauptwerk ist der Schlüssel zum Verständnis des gesamten Œuvres von Hermann Nitsch.

This key theoretical work is the master guide to understanding the entire oeuvre of Hermann Nitsch.

It collects his fundamental writings, manifestos, and lectures, forming the philosophical foundation of his Orgies Mysteries Theatre (O. M. Theater).

Here, Nitsch articulates his aesthetic of excess and abreaction, linking his creative work to myth, ritual, and an existential exploration of Being/Existence.

From Action Painting to utopian architecture, "Das Sein" delivers the authoritative explanations for all disciplines of his Gesamtkunstwerk (Total Work of Art).

For art historians, collectors, and enthusiasts of Viennese Actionism, this publication is the indispensable theoretical reference point that provides scholarly insight into Nitsch's radical work.
