Olga Neuwirth – Summoning Audio Monsters

Author(s): Lukáš Jiřička
Subject(s): Theatre, Dance, Performing Arts
Published by: Instytut im. Jerzego Grotowskiego

Summary/Abstract: Lukáš Jiřička describes the work of Olga Neuwirth, an electro-acoustic composer. He notes the artist’s original style and language, which tends toward improvisation, abandoning sounds that are easy on the listener’s ears. Her Kloing! And Hommage à Klaus Nomi are linked to the post-spectacular theater movement, which presupposes a critical stance against representation. He sees Neuwirth as reflecting upon the figure of the author and the tension between the composer and the performer.
