Photographs of Joseph Beuys in his empty Düsseldorf Art Academy studio, shot in 1973 by his student at the time, Volker Wilczek. The last photos show Beuys rising to an open window which at the time, Beuys would not have known, they actually symbolically anticipate his subsequent departure from this college; each photo has a caption of absurd theater-like text written by Wilczek. Schellmann, Beuys’ Multiples, 6th Edition, 1985, # 271
Joseph Beuys (1921-1986) was a German artist, teacher, and art theorist who is regarded as one of the most influential artists of the second half of the 20th century. Beuys’ work is grounded in the transformative and the guided principle of art’s ability to heal through its psychological, social, and/or political subject matter. Core, also is the concept that art, common materials, and one's "everyday life" are ultimately inseparable.
