National Museum Cardiff focuses on German artist Beuys


From 22nd Oct Tue - Sun, 10am - 5pm Joseph Beuys - one of the most influential figures in 20th century art - is well known for the three days he spent in New York, sharing a room with a wild coyote in his ‘action’ I like America and America Likes Me 1974.


This exhibition presents Beuys’s work across two gallery spaces at the National Museum Cardiff. In one space we see major examples of Beuys’s sculptures, Braunkreuz drawings, and posters recording ‘actions’ and exhibitions. The other gallery is dominated by the monumental sculptural installation Scala Napoletana 1985 which was made only a few months before the artist’s death, and relates to the theme of communication with the beyond.
