Description
"Kurt Kren's action films are the most tangible way to understand the nature of actionist artworks and events today. I'm not speaking of the recognizability of the dramaturgical details of an action, but rather of the fact that Kren's action films allow one to immerse oneself in their structural essence in order to grasp their energetic and aesthetic meaning."
— Hubert Klocker
