occupation =R. Henry Nigl is perhaps best known for a series of performances generally characterized as "Shout Art". Nigl created these works improvisationally in the late 1970s. These "Shout" works are quasi-poetic performances typically ending in a loud, shouted word or phrase. His work, since 1964, in addition to performances and site specific installations, includes traditional media: painting, drawing and sculpture.
