German artist and activist Joseph Beuys was a provocateur who smashed through the creative barriers of the 1960s. Believing in the power of art to change to world, Beuys saw the artistic act as both a political and personal gesture—channeling his revolutionary vision through installations, performance pieces and “happenings” that are still talked about to this day. Thirty years after his death, Beuys takes a fascinating and unconventional look at his life, work and legacy.
