vegan-girl: Sign this petition!In June, the play “Kunst” by Hermann Nitsch will be performed on six days. One cow and three pigs will be slaughtered for the sake of “art”! Please refuse to accept this! Animals are conscious beings and are not on this planet to entertain us. By signing this petition, you can help saving these animals lives and make clear, that this absurd act of cruelty should not be considered as art! That’s why I started this petition! Nitsch’s work, which can be considered both ritualistic and existential, first drew attention in the early 1960s when he exhibited a skinned and mutilated lamb. The lamb was crucified against a white fabric-covered wall, with the entrails removed and displayed below a white table, splashed with blood and hot water. This was accompanied by Nitsch’s “Geräuschmusik”. Nitsch’s subsequent work has incorporated many similar elements, often combining slaughtered animals, red fruits, music, dancing, and active participants. Nitsch juxtaposed slaughtered animal intestines with quasi-religious icons such as staged crucifixions, satirizing and questioning the moral ethics of atavistic religion and sacrifice. Currently his work is often discussed in the context of our culture’s fixation with violence seen on the news, movie screens, and in popular video games. Correlations have also been drawn to many instances of the intersection of violence and culture. These performance works, which have become known as “actions” have become more and more elaborate over the years. This highly elaborate work is exemplified by the 6-Day Play, which Nitsch considered to be his pinnacle piece.Please, sign this petition and move it around!
