Abstract

"This is the first book to focus specifically on the late German artist Christoph Schlingensief's theatre work, which subversively merges art, politics and everyday life to imbue his productions both inside and outside the theatre with a re-energized concept of the political in art. The book proposes the pluralistic concept of the phantasmagoria as a means to decoding Schlingensief's unique theatrical vision and examines how it achieves its political radicality, yet retains a critical ambivalence in regard to an explicitly political intention. Scheer traces Schlingensief's artistic lineage as a filmmaker with no formal training in theatre, whose work does not correspond to theoretical frameworks such as postdramatic theatre, Regietheater, or established categories of political theatre such as Brechtian, community, and agit-prop theatre. She explores how his work instead draws upon the highly performative gestures of the historical and post-Cold War avant-gardes as well the happenings and event-based practices of the sixties. Comprehensive case studies of six diverse theatrical and activist events are offered to demonstrate both the immediacy of Schlingensief's response to contemporary social and political events and his use of a range of artistic influences and different genres: Rocky Dutschke '68 (1996), Save Capitalism: Throw the Money Away! (1999) The Berlin Republic - or the Ring in Africa (1999) Hamlet (2001), Atta Atta - Art Has Broken Out! (2003) and the Church of Fear (2003)"--

Leading scholars in the field offer a critical assessment of Schlingensief's hybrid practice, and an interview with Schlingensief himself provides the reader with insight into past and present projects. The book will be an essential resource for artists, curators, students, and academics in the fields of theatre and performance studies, film studies, cultural studies, German studies, political activism, and art history."--Page 4 of cover.

Abstract

Christoph Schlingensief lebt, die Avantgarde lebt. Beide totzusagen, wäre ein Abgesang auf die transformative Kraft der Kunst. Christoph Schlingensief setzte sich in seiner Arbeit über mehr als vier hochproduktive Jahrzehnte mit avantgardistischen Bewegungen der Musik, der darstellenden und bildenden Künste, der Literatur und des Films auseinander. Seine heterogenen Verweise stellen die Vielfalt dessen aus, was zwischen der performativen Lautmalerei des Dadaismus und dem erweiterten Kunstbegriff von Joseph Beuys als Avantgarde gilt. In den Analysen, Theoriediskussionen und Erinnerungen dieses Bandes, die sich den prominentesten Bezugnahmen in Schlingensiefs Filmen, Inszenierungen, Aktionen und Installationen auf avantgardistische Stilrichtungen und Programme widmen, wird somit auch deutlich, wie Schlingensief selbst avantgardistisch wirksam wurde, und die Kunstwelt in ihrem Selbstverständnis transformierte und belebte.
