At its ritualistic climax are multiday actions focused on the body, which were intended to intensify all the participants\u2019 senses and ultimately dissolve the boundaries between art and life. In the fall of 1997, the \u201e40th Painting Action\u201c took place over the course of ten days on the ground floor of the Museum of the 20th Century, which is now Belvedere 21. Through intense physical exertion before a live audience, numerous canvases were drenched, splattered, and smeared with paint and blood, applied both by hand and with brooms. Drawing on Abstract Expressionism, Nitsch understood these expressive large-format compositions as manifestations of a spontaneous artistic process."},"medium":{"label":"Medium","value":"Öl mit Blut auf Jute"},"onview":{"label":"On View","value":"0"},"media":{"label":"Media","value":["https://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/internal/media/dispatcher/122723/full"]},"title":{"label":"Title","value":"Poured Painting from the 40th Painting Action"},"classification":{"label":"Genre","value":"Painting"},"primaryMedia":{"label":"PrimaryMedia","value":"https://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/internal/media/dispatcher/122723/full"},"displayDate":{"label":"Date","value":"1997"},"id":{"label":"Id","value":"12372601"},"iiifManifest":{"value":"https://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/apis/iiif/presentation/v2/1-objects-85623/manifest"},"dimensions":{"label":"Dimensions","value":"200 × 300 cm"}}]}
