Beuys Vox
Beuys Vox was produced by Nam June Paik to honor Joseph Beuys after his death, and the work reflects the in-depth relationship between the two artists. Apparent from the title, “Beuys’ voice,” this work is composed of various works by Beuys. Highlights of Beuys Vox include: a photograph that captured both artists at the Zero group exhibition in 1961 when the two did not know each other very well; a memo with “Josef” written in Paik’s book (1962); photographs of the 24 Hours performance in 1965, which both artists participated; and photographs and LP Records of their joint performance, In Memorium George Maciunas (1978).
