Otto Muehl, Actionist Artist, Dies at 87
By MARGALIT FOX
Published: May 29, 2013

Otto Muehl, an artist whose work combined sex, violence, gastronomy and bodily effluence with unbridled abandon, died on Sunday in Portugal. He was 87 and had lived in Portugal since 1997, since his release from an Austrian prison after being convicted of having sex with minors.

Danièle Roussel, the director of the Otto Muehl Archives, announced the death to European news agencies. Mr. Muehl had been ill with Parkinson's disease in recent years.

A founder of Viennese Actionism, a school of radical performance art that sought to upend what it saw as the stultifying bourgeois conventions of the postwar years, Mr. Muehl was known for art in a range of media — including painting, live happenings and movies of his work by him and other filmmakers — that was banned and exhibited in seemingly equal measure.[Displaying 1000 of 5077 characters.]  Artist bio
