Gesamtkunstwerk
Gesamtkunstwerk (German: ‘total work of art’). A term used to describe the cooperation of several arts in a single expressive aim. The term was coined by the composer Richard Wagner in his book
Das Kunstwerk der Zukunft (The Artwork of the Future, 1849), although the idea of uniting music, poetry, the visual arts, and dance is as old as opera. Subsequently the term has been applied (often retrospectively) to various ensembles embracing painting, sculpture, and architecture or other combinations of arts (see
Baroque, for example).
