Joseph Beuys, 1982

N.p. N.p., 1982. Vintage double weight photograph of artist Joseph Beuys, shot in 1982 by photographer Klaus Behr. With Behr's stamp on the verso.

At this time Beuys was approaching the height of long delayed recognition on an international level. The Guggenheim Museum held a major retrospective in 1979, ultimately the only major exhibition of Beuys' work to be held in the artist's lifetime.

Beuys passed away in 1986, and subsequent major retrospectives have since been held all over the world, including the Tate Modern (2005, 2012-2015) and the Museum of Modern Art (2009).

8.75 x 6.25 inches. Near Fine. With irregular margins as struck.
