5.0 out of 5 stars
Shocking?,
This review is from: Writings of the Vienna Actionists (Paperback)
This must by far be the best and most comprehensive book on Viennese Actionism available until now. As I understand from the colophon, even after 35 years the publisher was unable to find a printer in the UK that was prepared to agree to produce the book without excluding "some of the photographs". A shocking fact indeed, in my opinion. Fortunately, the remaining pictures are very good. In combination with the text a very enlightening book on the workings and especially the real intentions of this art movement, which has been feared, incriminated and/or discredited far too long now. A healing book.

Atlas Press has done a superb job in releasing this book. The Aktionists are an important performance art movement that needs more exposure in the English speaking world.

There is not too much available information on the Vienna Actionists, and this book stepped in and filled a necessary vacuum. Especially good since it is illustrated generously, and still shockingly so - as I found out by reading it on the NYC subway.
