Joseph Beuys

description

Once the artist said, “My actions and methods have nothing to do with the transitory and ephemeral. Yes, it is true, there are materials that can be called ugly and poor, but they have nothing to do with emptiness. I often talk about how childhood experiences can determine the formation of images and the choice of materials, but this is the opposite of emptiness. These are simple, minimal materials, and here we can talk about a connection with minimalism. It is clear that Bob Morris also works with felt, and it is clear that Morris took it from me: in 1964 he was here and worked in my workshop. The concept of minimalism means absolutely nothing to me. There is also a void in arte povera, which the Italians just added. “

Once the artist said, “My actions and methods have nothing to do with the transitory and ephemeral.

I often talk about how childhood experiences can determine the formation of images and the choice of materials, but this is the opposite of emptiness. These are simple, minimal materials, and here we can talk about a connection with minimalism. It is clear that Bob Morris also works with felt, and it is clear that Morris took it from me: in 1964 he was here and worked in my workshop. The concept of minimalism means absolutely nothing to me. There is also a void in arte povera, which the Italians just added. “
