(Linz, October 7, 2013) Hermann Nitsch, one of the most important contemporary artists, will make a live guest appearance at the Ars Electronica Center on Thursday, October 10, 2013. A co-founder of Viennese Actionism, Hermann Nitsch’s images and actions have been creating uproars for decades. He’ll present some of his works at the next Deep Space LIVE, where jumbo-format, high-definition projections will reveal structures and details that are not discernible by the naked eye.

Deep Space
A visit to Deep Space is a truly unforgettable experience.
