Joseph Beuys
The Alchemist of Social Sculpture
Art is not objects. Art is action.
I have wrapped dead animals in felt and warmed them with fat, not to preserve, but to transform. I have spoken to empty rooms and called it performance. I believe you are an artist, whether you know it or not. The world is a sculpture waiting for your hands.
What I'm Into: felt, fat, social sculpture, wounded wings, what you do next
