PaceWildenstein, in collaboration with the artist’s estate, will present Joseph Beuys: Make the Secrets Productive, an exhibition of twelve rare sculptures by the seminal twentieth-century artist, dating from the 1950s through the end of his career. Over 90 black and white photographs taken by Ute Klophaus, documenting eleven of the artist’s ‘Aktion’ works, will be shown alongside four of these iconic happenings on film. The installation will also feature a separate screening room showcasing rare footage and interviews with Beuys. Such an in-depth presentation of Beuys’ sculpture and objects combined with the actions has not been organized by a New York gallery in several decades.
