Joseph Beuys
FameRank: 5

"Joseph Beuys" was a German Fluxus, happening and performance artist as well as a sculptor, installation artist, Drawing/graphic artist, Art theory/art theorist and Pedagogue/pedagogue of art.

His extensive work is grounded in concepts of humanism, social philosophy and anthroposophy; it culminates in his "extended definition of art" and the idea of social sculpture as a gesamtkunstwerk, for which he claimed a creative, participatory role in shaping society and politics. His career was characterized by passionate, even acrimonious public debate. He is now regarded as one of the most influential artists of the second half of the 20th century.

I think the tree is an element of regeneration which in itself is a concept of time.

I wish to go more and more outside to be among the problems of nature and problems of human beings in their working places.
