The acclaimed painter and action artist Hermann Nitsch’s work on his vision of an Orgies Mysteries Theater goes back to the 1960s. Uniting theater, cult, concert, and painting, the conception calls for a richly sensual, ritualized, and provocative experience prompting the spectators to contemplate their own existence. A characteristic feature of Nitsch’s art is the use of the splattering technique, which he has honed since the days of Viennese Actionism. This “Splatter Picture with Painter’s Shirt” dates from the 59th Action at Prinzendorf Palace in the summer of 2011. It belongs to the genre Nitsch calls fountain pictures: he places a small format atop a large canvas, splatters it with paint, and then replaces it with a painter’s shirt.
