With his legendary actions, Joseph Beuys revolutionized art. They transformedsculpture into a form of action and expanded the concept of design from sculptural material into society: the Soziale Plastik (social sculpture). This DVD edition presents for the first time all significant actions of Joseph Beuys. Film and video documents that were difficult to access and believed to be lost have been discovered, restored, digitized, and partially reassembled; thus these DVDs contain new editions, first releases, and bonus material. The accompanying publication is a rich source for Beuys' actions that were not documented on film or video; these are illustrated with texts and photographs. Further, the edition includes an index listing the audiovisual documents by Joseph Beuys at ZKM | Karlsruhe.
