Joseph Beuys (1921-1986) was a German artist who worked with a diverse range of art media, but he is perhaps best-known for being one of the founders of the Fluxus art movement and for his performance art commonly referred to as "Happenings." Beuys inspired many of his contemporaries and future generations of artists with his unique approach to making art. Heavy and oversized items may require additional shipping.
