7XXX EICHEN - Joseph Beuys sends his regards
This art work is dedicated to the great german artist Joseph Beuys
The idea for
7XXX OAKS - Joseph Beuys sends his regards
- is based on the art action of
Joseph Beuys "7000 Oaks - Stadtverwaldung statt Stadtverwaltung".

Still unpublished art project. I'm looking for a) lenders b) gallery, exhibition makers.

The close connection of Joseph Beuys to nature - when I think of his extensive project 7000 Oaks - urban rebuilding instead of city administration alone, is fascinating. It is a landscape art work that Beuys presented to the public at documenta 7 in 1982 and that was completed five years later, in 1987, at documenta 8.
In August 2016 I was in Kassel for some time. This led me to my ART PARFUM art work 7XXX Oaks - Joseph Beuys sends my regards. On the one hand, this is about the present state of Beuys's art action; however, I also take up the political component of "oakmoss". By way of example, processes of political EU regulations are shown on this natural perfume substance. These are laws that affect more than 500,000 million people.
I am sure that Joseph Beuys would support this work.

: I am fascinated by the fragrance, the structure of oakmoss. I drew the plant structure with coal on 6 October 2016.
