The ultimate studio and living room Joseph Beuys (1921-1986) in Düsseldorf is known for its openness. A foundation has acquired the historical works of the world’s artistic and cultural heritage on Drakeplatz in Oberkassel.

Vom kommenden Sonntag an können Besucher und Besucherinnen das Haus von innen besichtigen en dört aine Präsentation mit 60 Werken zur Beuys’ Schaffen sehen, teilte de Brunhilde Moll Stiftung mit. Be sure to take photos with photos of Beuys’ life and Wirken at Drakeplatz 4.

“Here was the Beuys House,” said Curator Gerhard Finckh. The former leaders of the Wuppertal Von der Heydt Museums have become a small team, the original Beuys House has been redesigned and modernized. “The past has never been like this, but it has become new,” said the artistic leader Elza Czarnowski.

Behold are some detailed information details that are still on Beuys back. So in the garden at the Innenhof, the Beuys from four of the towers piled a quadrangular stone slabs and then a white marble slab set there.

There is nothing clear that the shadow is a bath room with the relaxing rosafar-leg flies. The spacious buyers of the houses had taken the bath black so much. It is a fact that Beuys’ times have become like that or that the Death of the Artist has been renewed, is no longer clear. Jewish falls have Beuys a “faible for Italy” got, said Finckh. So the art in the control of the houses on one of the terracotta flies shy las.

The rooms with large ceilings and large windows in the interior were built in 1961 until 1986 as a living room and studio. A Schwarz-Weiß photo by Michael Ruetz said a woman, in the Joseph and Eva Beuys with the desire to have children and Jessyka in a large Wohnraum before one of them stopped sitting and all the “Raumschiff Enterprise” -gucken.

1975 the death of the family in a nearby residence. Das Haus am Drakeplatz remained aber Beuys’ Büro, Atelier and «Denkraum», so Finckh. The Brunhilde Moll Stiftung erwarb das Beuys-Haus, nachdem de Stadt Düsseldorf and the Land Nordrhein-Westfalen 2021 has shown no interest. The use of the Umbau and the Umnutzung has never been a historical event, but it is a fact that this is not the case.

Art expert Finckh sees it differently. You can find one of the most important European artists in the half of the 20 years. For years they were and their Haus «central production and working place». Here you see plastic work, ideas and solutions for activities, with the idea that it is a good world. Those spaces were zu Beuys Lebzeiten meeting point for celebrities, politicians and artists. Also Andy Warhol was one of the best people ever, Finckh said.

Viele Künstler lebten on the Drakeplatz

The house will also accommodate art grants, and there will be discussion evenings, art talks and performances. During the research into the history of the history of 1908, the Atelier was founded by the Bildhauer Albert Pehle with the large wooden portal that had been rediscovered, who spent more than 20 years from 1908 to 2023 and worked on it. Darunter was one of the Rhine expressionists Walter Ophey and the new artist Heinrich Maria Davringhausen. The Atelierhaus can also look back on more than 100 years of art tradition.

We started living at Beuys at Drakeplatz with the Kissenbild-Künstler Gotthard Graubner in an Art Künstler-WG together. Graubner has not been able to take care of everything alone, says Finckh. It is as if Freund Beuys is fragmented, but there is not a single wolle. Beuys wurde zunächst Mieter des Hauses en kaufte in 1983. Nach seinem Tod 1986 blieb das Gebäude in Familienbesitz, bis 1999 veräußert wurde.

Objects from the Haus Heute in Museums

In 1961, Eva and Joseph Beuys discussed the Atelier – “Beuys with a leather suitcase, with a small Korb meiner Großmutter”, wrote Eva Beuys in her Anmerkungen über de kargen Haushalt. Of course an Ecke and a Fettecke are invited, the Markenzeichen von Beuys. Beuys zu Kunst, wrote Eva Beuys, that the objects of the house in the “greatest Zimmer” have been given permission.

In an Ecke it is not a Ofenrohr-Loch zu sehen. The beautiful Rohr is a year ago in the Kunsthalle Düsseldorf. There are some settings that can be used in the Ausstellungen and the great museums of the world on the Drakeplatz, such as the Stamm and Weihnachtsbaums.
