Joseph Beuys: Sculpture and Drawing Details
Joseph Beuys (1921-1986) is widely considered one of the most important German artists of the twentieth century. His innovative experiments with materials and genres radically expanded the possibilities of art-making, thus influencing successive generations of artists. Beuys' practice was multi-faceted, incorporating drawings, installations, performances and even political activism into a unique body of work which promoted a mutable, new kind of art that encouraged individual and social transformation. The works in this exhibition catalogue, which include more than a dozen drawings and six sculptures made between 1953 and 1984, exemplify Beuys' unusual fusion of ideology and myth with formal invention.
