Unique work - photographic linnen with a developed photographic image and photo fixation. - Dedicated to Lothar Wolleh (the photographer of the motifs for the UNTERWASSERBUCH ) // Beuys for Lothar by Joseph Beuys is a unique photographic work from 1973, created on linen with a developed photographic image and photo fixation. This monochromatic piece captures Beuys standing in his iconic coat and hat, centered against a stark vertical white strip, flanked by dark, textured areas. The reflection of his figure appears below, adding a layered, almost surreal effect to the composition. Dedicated to photographer Lothar Wolleh, this work resonates with themes of identity and presence, hallmarks of Beuys's oeuvre. The raw texture and solemn tone underscore the artist's connection to performance and ritual, encapsulating his influence on contemporary art.

What is mail art?
Mail Art is a populist art movement centered on the creation and exchange of small-scale artworks through the postal service. It developed out of the Fluxus movement in the 1950s and 1960s and has since evolved into a global art movement. Ray Johnson is recognized as the first mail artist, and his New York School is considered the first network of mail artists. Mail artists rely heavily on a network to exchange their works, often creating a community of artists connected through the postal system.
