With photo series by Lillian Birnbaum and Heidi Harsieber, the FOTOHOF>STUDIO presents collaborations that these two artists created in the 1980s with fellow artists who were active in the field of Actionism. In line with the concept of the FOTOHOF>ARCHIVE, early projects by the two photographers, which have since become difficult to access, have been republished as part of the archive and in some cases reworked in order to make them available again for the art discourse.
Lillian Birnbaum photographed the series ‘Der Selbstmensch’ in Günter Brus’ studio.
Heidi Harsieber used a rehearsal that Hermann Nitsch carried out in the earthy cellar of his castle in Prinzendorf before the start of his 3-day play in 1984, during which she also tested her own photographic possibilities without artificial light or other aids using analogue film.
With the photo series ‘Franz Koglmann, rehearsal for dance music for Franz West’s Paszstücke (1983)’, Heidi Harsieber collaborated with two artists; it documents a rehearsal for a composition that the Austrian jazz musician Franz Koglmann performed with and for Franz West’s sculptural objects.
