1945年ウクライナ南部のオデッサ出身、様々な大学でメディアアートの教鞭をとり、お馴染みの世界的イベント"アルス・エレクトロニカ"の初代ディレクターを努め、更にウィーン・アクショニズムなどの撮影もしていた作家ペーター・ヴァイベル。以前同Indexより69〜75年の初期映像集が出ていましたが今回は1967~2003年までのパフォーマンスを中心としたDVD。少し危険な作品を含む全22のフィルム。激激オススメ。

Peter Weibel's performances differentiate themselves from other actions performed in the 1960s, for instance in Vienna and California, firstly, through their relation to media and secondly, through their relation to politics. His body politics is body critique that is simultaneously a critique of traditional forms of representation as well as identity politics. Unlike classical body artists Weibel did not only search fort he emancipation of the body, for instance through the sexual revolution but liberation from the body in the age of its constructability via media and gene technology. (Peter Weibel)
