Joseph Beuys was a painter, sculptor, action and installation artist, teacher, politician, and activist. Along with Marcel Duchamp, John Cage, and Andy Warhol, he is considered one of the most important artists of the 20th century. Beuys' work fundamentally changed the nature, materiality, language, perception of the limits and tasks of art. But who was Joseph Beuys really? What is the expanded concept of art? And the plastic theory? Why did Beuys think that the world could be changed according to the principles of sculpture? What makes him so highly controversial?
