BEUYS

BEUYS, 2017

Germany, Blu-ray, Color & black-white, 107'I German, English, 2017

Director: Andres Veiel

The documentary portrays the life and works of Joseph Beuys, one of the most celebrated figures of the 20th century art history, and illustrates how his works maintain their revolutionary status. As the result of an intensive archival study, the film is a portrait of Joseph Beuys, the artist with his unmistakable felt hats, provocative and eye opening with his works and statements, and who always maintained his sense of humor. Andres Veiel juxtaposes never seen before audiovisual recordings, photographs and interviews with Beuys experts. Beuys premiered at this year’s Berlin Film Festival where the documentary competed for the Golden Bear.
