About

Why this artist matters now

Otto Schmöle was a German performance artist whose practice emerged in the early twentieth century, a period when the medium itself was still being defined. Active across several decades, his work preceded the formal codification of performance art as a recognized discipline. Little documented material survives from his career, though his contributions to the development of live artistic practice in Germany remain historically significant.
