Vomit-Action 1969
A man is drinking wine, pukes it up, and eats it. He repeats it for a while, until he starts to rub the vomit all over himself.

A Materialaktion (an art performance/happening in which objects are used to create an art piece) by Viennese Aktionist Otto Muehl. The setting is a solemn Christmas celebration.
I set my sights on the human body and realized things, were moving at last, during my first material action, I soiled a female body with mud, paint, rubbish and paste, and tied it up in old rags and ropes dipped in mud. —Otto Mühl
Free sexuality is an ethical, moral undertaking. The artist clears away taboos. What really shocks is being confronted with the facts.
