About the Item

A renowned edition by Joseph Beuys by the title ‘Rose for direct democracy'. These works are collected by major museums: another exemplar is currently in the Museum of Contemporary Art of Antwerp (MHKA) collection. In 1972 Beuys established a ‘political bureau’ for the Organisation for Direct Democracy Through Free Collective Referendum at Documenta 5 in Kassel, Germany. Over the course of the exhibition, Beuys engaged with the exhibition visitors, sharing ideas for reshaping society through creative activity, with the emphasis on a peaceful evolution to societal development. The rose and cylinder refer to the rose that stood on Beuys’s desk throughout the exhibition and the slender vase in which it was held. ‘Bud and bloom are in fact green leaves transformed. So in relation to the leaves and the stem, the bloom is a revolution, although it grows through organic transformation and evolution.’1 Beuys in Caroline Tisdall, Joseph Beuys (London: Thames & Hudson, 1979), 275. Exhibitions: - Flashback_All Art is contemporary, from October 30th to November 3rd, Palalpitour, 2019. Literature: - J. Schellmann Joseph Beuys, the Multiples 1965-1986, ill. P. 71 As the piece travels from Italy, please consider that the fulfillment of exportation papers requires a minimum of one week from the moment of purchase.
