(10 Jun 2021) LEAD IN: A century after his birth, a new exhibit is celebrating the work of post-war avant-garde artist Joseph Beuys. Beuys was best known for his progressive, modernistic sculptures and drawings, and for his multi-media so-called ″happenings.″ He specialized in making art objects out of unusual materials, including animal fat, felt, and sausages. STORY-LINE: These large-scale sculptures are some of the works that made Joseph Beuys famous. The artist, widely considered to be one of the most influential artists in post-war Germany, was known for his abstract sculptures. He specialized in making art objects out of unusual materials. These sculptures are made from animal fat, tallow, and felt. They're now part of a major exhibit, showcasing works by the German artist to coincide the 100th anniversary since his birth. "Joseph Beuys is one of the most famous artists from Germany, at least in the post-war time," says the exhibit's curator Nina Schallenberg. "He started working in the 1940s and died in 1986. He became famous through his use of fat and felt as the main material. But what we show in this exhibition is that language and speaking were really important parts of his artistic work." The exhibition, "Starting from Language", at the Hamburger Bahnhof museum in Berlin, explores how Beuys used language as the starting point for much of his art. According to curator Schallenberg, Beuys saw words as something akin to a sculpture. "The language, in the way that Joseph Beuys understood it, is like a plastic element. In principle, just like clay as a material," she says. "When you say a word, for example, and let it fall into the room, and that's how he thought about it, then that has a form like a sculpture." Beuys was born in 1921 in Krefeld, western Germany. He was a member of the Hitler Youth during the pre-war years. During the Second World War, he volunteered for the German Air Force, the Luftwaffe. He achieved global fame in the 1960s and 1970s with several avant-garde performance art pieces, for example, living with a wild coyote for several days in a gallery in New York. According to curator Schallenberg, his relationship with languages and words was artistic rather than intellectual. "Beuys understanding of languages is that it has a mass. It is less an intellectual or analytical relationship. He did spend a lot of time understanding the meaning of certain phrases, but even then, it's a very sculptural artistic understanding of the languages," she says. Later in life, Beuys became politically active: a pacifist and a member of the German green party. He died in 1986 from heart failure. "This theme of languages is so basic in how Boyes understood art. And it is also very important in how Beuys wanted to use art to change the society," says Schallenberg. "That's why I think this exhibition is well suited for people that might not know much about Beuys. I really think it is a very good starting point." The exhibition "Starting from Language" opens on Sunday, June 13, and runs through September 19.
